A capacitor of capacitanceCis charged to a potential differenceVand then connected in series with an open key and a pure resistorR. At timet=0, the key is closed. IfIis current at timet=0, a plot oflog⁡Iagainsttis shown in the graph(2). Later one of the parameters, i.e.,V,RandCis changed, keeping the other two constant and graph(2)is recorded. Then

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

During discharging of a capacitor, the current is given by,

I=ERe- tRC

log⁡I=log⁡ERe- tRC

log⁡I=-tRC+log⁡ER

Intercept is constant⇒E&Rconstant

Magnitude of slope decreases⇒Cis increased
