Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If a capacitor is connected to a DC voltage source, what will happen to the current over time?
  • Step 1: Connect the capacitor to a DC voltage source.
  • Step 2: Initially, when the capacitor is connected, current starts to flow as the capacitor begins to charge.
  • Step 3: As the capacitor charges, the voltage across it increases.
  • Step 4: The current flowing into the capacitor decreases as it approaches its maximum charge.
  • Step 5: Eventually, the capacitor becomes fully charged, and the current stops flowing.
  • Step 6: At this point, the current through the capacitor is zero.
