Q73 / 90 · KVPY 2013 (SB/SX) · Physics

Consider the circuit shown in the figure below : Figure
All the resistors are identical. The charge stored in the capacitor, once it is fully charged, is

  • A
    0
  • B
    $\frac{5}{13} \mathrm{CV}$
  • C
    $\frac{2}{3} \mathrm{CV}$
  • Correct answer
    D
    $\frac{5}{8} \mathrm{CV}$

Solution

Figure
$V_{A B}=\frac{5 \frac{R}{3}}{\frac{5 R}{3}+R} \times V=\frac{5}{8} V$ $Q=\frac{5}{8} C V$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
