Find the potential drop across the capacitor in the given circuit.

A

6 V

B

6.5 V

C

7 V

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
b. The current will pass through only resistance part of the circuit.
Hence, `I = 9/(1+6+2) 1A`
Potential drop across `3muF` capacitance is
`V_(AB) = V_(AB) + V_(BC) = 1 xx 6 + 1/2 xx 1 = 6.5 V `
(Apply current division for current in branch BC which is
`1//2A)`.
