a capacitor of capacitance `C` is connected to two voltmeter `A` and `B`. `A` is ideal , having infinite resistance, while `B` has resistance `R`. The capcitor is charged and then switch `S` is closed. The reading of `A` and `B` will be equal

A

at all times

B

after time RC

C

after time RC ln 2

D

only after a very long time

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
a.A and B are effectively in parallel and hence give the same reading every time.
