Question
A capacitor is connected in an electric circuit. Wher key is pressed, the current in the circuit is(A) Zero(B) Maximum(C) Any transient value(D) Depends on capacitor used

When a capacitor is connected to a battery, then: (a) no current flows in the circuit at all (b) the current flows in the circuit for some time then decreases to zero (c) the current keeps on increasing, reaching a maximum value when the capacitor is charged to the voltage of the battery (d) an alternating current flows in the circuit
A capacitor is fully charged with a battery. Then the battery is removed and coil is connected with the capacitor in parallel, current varies as (a) Increases monotonically (b) Decreases monotonically (c) Zero (d) Oscillates indefinitely
You have connected a capacitor to a battery. When will the capacitor be fully charged? a) When the capacitor voltage is zero. b) When the supply voltage is equal to the capacitor voltage. c) When the capacitor voltage is infinity. d) When capacitor voltage is half the supply voltage.
