Question

In the circuit here, the steady state voltage across capacitor C is a fraction of the battery e.m.f. The fraction is decided by

  1. R1 only    
  2. R1 and R2 only    
  3. R subscript 1 end subscript and R subscript 3 end subscript only    
  4. R subscript 1 end subscript,R subscript 2 end subscript and R subscript 3 end subscript    

The correct answer is: R1 and R2 only


    In steady state potential difference across capacitor
    V2=potential difference across resistance R subscript 2 end subscript equals open parentheses fraction numerator R subscript 2 end subscript over denominator R subscript 1 end subscript plus R subscript 2 end subscript end fraction close parentheses V
    Hence V2 depends upon R2 and R1
