A `2 muF` capacitor is charged to `100 V`, and then its plates are connected by a conducting Wire. The heat produced is .

A

`1 J`

B

`0.1J`

C

`0.01 J`

D

`0.001 J`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Heat produced = Energy of charged capacitor
`= (1)/(2)CV^(2) = (1)/(2) xx (2 xx 10^(-6)) xx (100)^(2) = 0.01 J`
