JEE Advance - Physics (2021 - Paper 1 Online - No. 8)

In the circuit shown below, the switch S is connected to position P for a long time so that the charge on the capacitor becomes q1 $$\mu$$C. Then S is switched to position Q. After a long time, the charge on the capacitor is q2 $$\mu$$C.

Answer
0.67

Explanation

Switch at position Q

JEE Advanced 2021 Paper 1 Online Physics - Capacitor Question 8 English Explanation
$${V_A} - 1\,.\,{i_2} + 2 - 2{i_2} = {V_A}$$

$$3{i_2} = 2$$

$$ \Rightarrow {i_2} = {2 \over 3}A$$

Now, $${V_A} - \,{i_2} \times 1 = {V_B}$$

$${V_A} - {V_B} = {i_2} \times 1 = {2 \over 3}V$$

Potential difference across capacitor, $$\Delta V = {2 \over 3}V$$

$$\therefore$$ Charge on capacitor, $${q_2} = C\Delta V = 1 \times {2 \over 3} = 0.67\mu C$$
