When a capacitor is connected to a battery,

  • A
    an alternating current flows in the circuit.
  • B
    no current flows in the circuit.
  • C
    a current flows for some time and finally it decreases to zero.
  • D
    current keeps on increasing and reaches maximum after some time.

$A$ combination of two identical capacitors, a resistor $R$, and a $DC$ voltage source of voltage $6\; V$ is used in an experiment on a $C-R$ circuit. It is found that for a parallel combination of the capacitors, the time in which the voltage of the fully charged combination reduces to half its original voltage is $10\; s$. For a series combination, the time needed for reducing the voltage of the fully charged series combination by half is: (in $; s$)

Assertion : $A$ capacitor blocks direct current in the steady state.
Reason : The capacitive reactance of the capacitor is inversely proportional to frequency $f$ of the source of $emf$.

In the following circuit,the switch $S$ is closed at $t = 0.$ The charge on the capacitor $C_1$ as a function of time will be given by $\left( {{C_{eq}} = \frac{{{C_1}{C_2}}}{{{C_1} + {C_2}}}} \right).$

The time in seconds required to produce a potential difference of $20 \ V$ across a capacitor of $1000 \ \mu F$ when it is charged at a steady rate of $200 \ \mu C/s$ is
