A small signal voltage \(e=e_o\) sin wt is applied across an ideal capacitor of capacitance C. The correct statement is:

  1. A Phase difference between Current \(I(t)\) and Voltage \(V(t)\) is zero.
  2. B Capacitor does not consume any energy from the source of emf over a complete cycle.
  3. C Current \(I(t)\) lags behind the voltage \(V(t)\) by \(\frac{\pi}{2}\)
  4. D Current \(I(t)\) leads the voltage \(V(t)\) by \(\pi\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) Capacitor does not consume any energy from the source of emf over a complete cycle.

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

In an ideal capacitor, the current leads the voltage by \(\frac{\pi}{2}\), and the average power consumed over a complete cycle is zero because the energy stored during charging is returned to the source during discharging. Since option C is incorrect (it says lags) and option D…
