COMEDK · Physics · 18. Capacitance
A capacitor of \(2 \mu \mathrm{~F}\) is charged as shown in the figure. When the switch \(S\) is turned to position 2 , the percentage of its stored energy dissipated is
- A \(40 \%\)
- B \(60 \%\)
- C \(80 \%\)
- D \(90 \%\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(80 \%\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Consider the given figure, When the switch \(S\) is connected to point 1, then initial energy stored in the capacitor can be given as \(=\frac{1}{2}(2 \mu \mathrm{~F}) \times V^2\) When the switch \(S\) is connected to point 2, energy dissipated on connection across…
