In the circuit shown in the given figure, steadystate was reached when the switch S was open. The switch was closed at t = 0. The initial value of the current through the capacitor 2C is 12 Amp

-
- zero
- 1 amp
- 2 amp
- 3 amp
Correct Option: A
Initial voltage on 2C = 12 volts
| Then,discharging current, Id(t) = | ![]() | 2C.12 e(-t.3 / 8C) | ![]() | ||||||
| dt | |||||||||
| Then , Id(t) t = 0| = | ![]() | -24C × | . e(-t.3 / 8C) | ![]() | ||
| 8C |
= -9 amp
| Now, charging current, Ic(t) = | ![]() | 24C | ![]() | 1 - e(-3t / 8C) | ![]() | ![]() | ||
| dt |
= -9 amp
At t = 0, Ic(t) = 9 amp.
Hence, at t = 0
total current I(t) = Ic(t) + Id(t) = 0 amp.
