Question

In the given figure, the charge stored in 6μF capacitor, when points A and B are joined by a connecting wire i s _______μC.

Image At steady state, capacitor behaves as an open circuit and current flows in circuit as shown in the diagram. R(eq) = 9Ω i = 9V/9Ω = 1A ΔV(6Ω) = 1 × 6 = 6 V V(A) = 3 V So, potential difference across 6μF is 6 V. Hence Q = CΔV = 6 × 6 × 10⁻⁶ C = 36 μC
