Capacitors in DC Circuits & RC

At steady state the charge on the capacitor, as shown in the circuit below, is _________ μ\muC.

Figure

Numerical answer type. Work it out, then open the answer.

Show answer and solution

Answer: 16

  1. Steady state: capacitor draws no current; I=510+15=0.2 AI = \dfrac{5}{10+15} = 0.2\text{ A}.
  2. Capacitor is across 10 Ω10\ \Omega: V=0.2×10=2 VV = 0.2\times10 = 2\text{ V}
  3. Q=8×2=16 μCQ = 8\times2 = 16\ \mu\text{C}
