Question

The switch in the circuit shown in the diagram is closed after being open for a very long time, during which the capacitor has lost all of its charge.

For each statement select True or False, and briefly why if you can:

1. A long time after the switch is closed, the voltage across the capacitor equals the voltage across the battery.
2. In the instant after the switch is closed, the voltage across the capacitor equals the voltage across the battery.
3. In the instant after the switch is closed, the voltage across the inductor equals the voltage across the battery.
4. A long time after the switch is closed, the current through the resistor is zero.

Explanation / Answer

1. True

After long time the capacitor starts providing large resistance ,and current in the circuit becomes zero hence its true.

2 false .

There is current through capacitor hence there will be voltage difference .

3.true

No current in inductor at that time .

4. False
