Consider the situation shown in the figure. The capacitor `A` has a charge `q` on it whereas `B` is uncharged. The charge appearing on the capacitor `B` a long `7` time after the switch is closed is :
.

A

zero

B

`q/2`

C

`q`

D

`2q`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
The -ve charge on the capacitor A, will not flow through the switch S. hence there will be no charge on the capacitor B, whatever may be the time interval.
