  • An uncharged capacitor is connected to a battery. On charging the capacitor

    A
    All the energy supplied is stored in the capacitor
    B
    Half the energy supplied is stored in the capacitor
    C
    The energy stored depends upon the capacity of the capacitor only
    D
    The energy stored depends upon the time for which the capacitor is charged

  • If an uncharged capacitor is charged by connecting it with an ideal battery and a resistance R as shown. Then heat generated in resistor R by the time capacitor stores energy (1)/(8) CV^(2) is :

    A
    `(1)/(4) CV^(2)`
    B
    `(3)/(8) CV^(2)`
    C
    `(1)/(2) CV^(2)`

  • Assertion: When an uncharged capacitor is connected across a battery, half the work done by the battery is stored as electric potential energy inside the capacitor and remaining half is dissipated in the form of heat. Reason: When an uncharged capacitor is connected across the battery then potential difference between the plates of capacitor increases from zero to the value of EMF of battery but battery supplies charge at the constant potential difference.

    A
    If both assertion and reason are correct and reason is a correct explanation of the assertion.
    B
    If both assertion and reason are correct but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
    C
    If assertion is correct but reason is incorrect.
    D
    If assertion is incorrect but reason is correct.
