COMEDK · Physics · 23. Alternating Current

In the circuit shown, the internal resistance of the cell is negligible. The steady state current in the \(2 ~\Omega\) resistor is


  1. A \(0.6 \mathrm{~A}\)
  2. B \(1.2 \mathrm{~A}\)
  3. C \(0.9 \mathrm{~A}\)
  4. D \(1.5 \mathrm{~A}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(0.9 \mathrm{~A}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(2 \Omega\) and \(3 \Omega\) resistors are in parallel, so their equivalent resistance, \[ R_{\text {eq }}=\frac{2 \times 3}{2+3}=\frac{6}{5}=1.2 \Omega \] As capacitor blocks DC at steady state, so the resistor \(4 \Omega\) is ineffective. The \(R_{\text {eq }}\) and…
