At time t = 0, terminal A in the circuit shown in the figure is connected to B by a key and an alternating current , with and rad/s starts flowing in it with the initial direction shown in the figure. At , the key is switched from B to D. Now onwards only A and D are connected. A total charge Q flows from the battery to charge the capacitor fully. If and the battery is ideal with of 50V, identify the correct statement(s).

At time t = 0, terminal A in the circuit shown in the figure is connected to B by a key and an alternating current , with and rad/s starts flowing in it with the initial direction shown in the figure. At , the key is switched from B to D. Now onwards only A and D are connected. A total charge Q flows from the battery to charge the capacitor fully. If and the battery is ideal with of 50V, identify the correct statement(s).
- AMagnitude of the maximum charge on the capacitor before is .
- BThe current in the left part of the circuit just before is clockwise.
- Correct answerCImmediately after A is connected to D, the current in R is 10 A.
- Correct answerD.
Solution
If q represent the charge on capacitor’s upper plate:
Max charge
Charge of upper plate at
When capacitor is fully charged then charge on upper plate
Voltage across capacitor when A and D are connected
Total voltage across
Current is anticlockwise
Max charge
Charge of upper plate at
When capacitor is fully charged then charge on upper plate
Voltage across capacitor when A and D are connected
Total voltage across
Current is anticlockwise
Hence, the correct answer is options: 'C', 'D'.
