In the given circuit, one of the capacitors was connected to a voltage `V_(0)` and then at the moment `t = 0` was shorted by means of the switch. Find the amount of heat generated.

A

`CV_(0)^(2)`

B

`(1)/(5)CV_(0)^(2)`

C

`(1)/(3)CV_(0)^(2)`

D

`(1)/(4)CV_(0)^(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Potential drop across both capacitors are same
`q=CV_(0)," "u_(i)=(1)/(2)CV_(0)^(2)`
`DeltaH=u_(f)-u_(i)," "u_(f)=(1)/(2)((q//2)^(2))/(C)+(1)/(2)((q//2)^(2))/(C)=(1)/(4)CV_(0)^(2)`
