AIIMS 2019 Physics Capacitors MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Easy-Class 12

When capacitor is fully charged, find current drawn from the cell. 9V C.

Question diagram
A

2 mA

B

1 mA

C

3 mA

D

9 mA

Correct Answer

Option C

Detailed Explanation

When a capacitor is fully charged, it acts as an open circuit, meaning no current flows through it. Therefore, the current drawn from the cell is 0 A, which corresponds to option (A). Options (B), (C), and (D) incorrectly suggest that there is a non-zero current, which contradicts the behavior of a fully charged capacitor. Understanding this concept is crucial in circuit analysis, as it highlights the relationship between voltage, charge, and current in capacitive systems.
