The capacitor C is initially without charge. X is now joined to Y for a long time, during which `H_1` heat is produced in the resistance R. X is now joined to Z for a long time, during which `H_2` heat is produced in R

A

`H_1 = H_2`

B

`H_1 = (1)/(2)H_2`

C

`H_1 = 2H_2`

D

The maximum energy stored in C at any time is `H_1.`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, D
When X is joined to Y for a long time (charging), energy stored
in the capacitor is equal to heat produced in `R =H_(1)`.
When X is joined to Z (discharging), the energy stored in
`C = (H_(1))` reappears as heat `(H_(2))` in R. Thus, `H_(1) = H_(2)`.
