Question

Calculate the steady stage current in the 2Ω resistor shown in the circuit. The internal resistance of battery is neglible and the capacitance of the capacitor is 0.2 microfarad.

Answer 1

The current distribution in the various arms of the network is shown in Fig. It is important to note the capacitor C₁ has infinite resistance for d.c. current. At branch point B, therefore no current passes through the arm BC₁ F
