Electric circuits miscellaneous

  1. The switch in the circuit has been closed for a long time. It is opened at t = 0. At t = 0+, the current through the 1 μF capacitor is

    1. 0 A
    2. 1 A
    3. 1.25 A
    4. 5 A
Correct Option: B

Circuit at t = 0 (at steady state)

Initial voltage, Vc (0) =
4
× 5 = 4 V
1 + 4

Circuit at t = 0+

ic(0+) = IB =
4
= 1 amp
4

i =
Vc
e-t / RC
R
