Question

The next question pertains to the situation described below Three resistors, two capacitors, two switches, and a battery are connected in the circuit shown below. The values of all circuit elements are given in the figure. Originally, both switches are open (as shown) and both capacitors are uncharged. At time t = 0, the switches S1 and S2 are simultaneously closed. R1 =6V R1 = R2 = R3 = 3 C2 Cl R3 Si S2 10. A very long time after the switches are closed, compare the magnitudes of the currents /1, /2, and Is through resistors Ri, R2, and Rs respectively: [12 Pts]

Explanation / Answer

10.

A very long time after both switches are closed capacitors are fully charged and act as open circuit ,Therefore current flowing in each resistor is

I1=I2=6/(3+2) =1 A

and

I3=0 A

Therefore answer is a) I1=I2>I3
