A fully charged capacitor has a capacitanceC. It is discharged through a small coil of resistance wire embedded in a thermally insulated block of specific heat capacitysand massm. If the temperature of the block is raised by∆T, the potential differenceVacross the capacitance is

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

E=12CV2...(i)

The energy stored in capacitor is lost in form of heat energy

H=ms ∆T ...(ii)

From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we have

ms ∆T=12CV2

V= 2 ms∆TC
