Question

Find the steady-state potential difference across the capacitor in the shown resistor-capacitor bridge connected to a 10 V source.

G1 Physics · Accepted Answer

At steady state the capacitor branch is open. Determine the potentials of its two terminals from the resistive network using voltage division/nodal analysis; their difference is 8 V. Correct answer: D.
