Question

treat the batteries as ideal and find the current in each se?si?s?to 5) The switch in the circuit shown has been open for a very long time. At time t -0, The switch in t ecircuit shown has been open for a ver cong time. At time t=0, 5) the switch is closed. Find: a) the current through the 2 M2 resistor immediately after the switch i b) closed. the charge on the capacitor when it becomes fully charged. the current through the 2 M resistor after the capacitor is fully charged. After the capacitor is fully charged, the switch is opened d) What is the current through the 2 MS2 resistor immediately after the switch is opened? e) What is the charge on the capacitor 2 seconds later? How much energy is dissipated in the 2 M resistor in the first 2 seconds after the switch is opened? 2 N 3 V

Explanation / Answer

(a)
When the switch is open after a very long time,
Capacitor acts as a Short circut and all the current will pass through Capacitor,
Therefore,

Current through, 2M ohm Resistor, = 0

(b)
Q = C*V
Q = 6 * 3 uC
Q = 18 uC
Charge across the capacitor, Q = 18 uC

(c)
I = V/R
I = 3/(4+2)
I = 0.5 uA
Current through the Resistor, I = 0.5 uA

(d)
Voltage across the resistor,
V = Q/C
V = 18/6 = 3V

V = I*R
I = 3/(2*10^6)
I = 1.5 uA
Current through the Resistor, I = 1.5 uA
