A `2 muF` capacitor is charged to `100 V`, and then its plates are connected by a conducting Wire. The heat produced is .

A

1 J

B

0.1 J

C

0.01 J

D

0.001 J

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`U_i =1/2 CV^2 =1/2 xx 2 xx10^(-6) xx(100)^2 = 0.01 J`
`U_f=0`
Heat produce = `U_i -U_f = 0.01J`
