Verified by Experts

(a) Potential diff. = `epsilon across resister`
(b) Current in circuit = `epsilon /r`
` (c) Potential diff. across capacitor = epsilon / r `
`(d) Energy stored in capacitor = 1/2 Cepsilon ^2 `
` (e) power delivered by battery = epsilon^2 / r `
` (f) Power converted to heat = epsilon^2/r` .
