Homework Statement
The battery is disconnected from a series RC circuit after the capacitor is fully charged and is replaced by an open switch. When the switch is closed,
a. the capacitor does not allow current to pass
b. the current stops in the resistor
c. the potential difference across the resistor is always greater than the potential difference across the capacitor
d. the potential difference across the resistor is always less than the potential difference across the capacitor
e. the potential difference across the resistor is always equal to the potential difference across the capacitor
Homework Equations
Not used
The Attempt at a Solution
I think the answer is between (d) or (e).
(d) if there is potential drop across the wire connecting the resistor and capacitor, (e) if no potential drop considered. Maybe the best answer is (d)?
Thanks
