Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a parallel RC circuit, what happens to the voltage across the capacitor as time approaches infinity?
  • Step 1: Understand that a parallel RC circuit has a resistor (R) and a capacitor (C) connected to a voltage supply.
  • Step 2: When the circuit is powered, the capacitor starts charging up.
  • Step 3: As the capacitor charges, the voltage across it increases.
  • Step 4: The charging process continues until the capacitor is fully charged.
  • Step 5: As time goes on (approaching infinity), the capacitor reaches its maximum voltage.
  • Step 6: This maximum voltage is equal to the supply voltage of the circuit.
