Q. A $500\mu F$ capacitor is charged at a steady rate of $100\mu C/second.$ The potential difference across the capacitor will be $10\ V$ after an interval of

A) 5 sec
B) 25 sec
C) 20 sec
D) 50 sec
Explanation

(d) Charge on capacitor for when it’s potential becomes $10\ V$
$Q = CV = 500 \times 10^{- 6} \times 10 = 5000 \times 10^{- 6}\mu C$
$\therefore$ Required time $= \frac{5000 \times 10^{- 6}}{100 \times 10^{- 6}} = 50\ \sec$
