Question
A series R -C circuit is connected to an alternating voltage source. Consider tow situations:
1. When the capacitor is air filled.
2. When the capacitor is mica filled.
Current through resistor is i and voltage across capacitor is V then
-
Va < Vb
-
Va > Vb
-
ia >ib
-
Va = Vb
Solution
B.
Va > Vb
Net reactive capacitance,
in
when mica is introduced capacitance will increase hence, voltage across capacitor get decrease.
