Question 41

A 40 μF40\ \mu\text{F}40 μF capacitor is charged by connecting it to a battery of emf 6.0 V. The initial charge on the capacitor is Q0Q_0Q0​. The capacitor is then discharged through a 250 kΩ250\text{ k}\Omega250 kΩ resistor. The time constant for the circuit is TTT. Which statement is correct?

TTT is 10 ms10\text{ ms}10 ms.

Q0Q_0Q0​ is 24 μC24\ \mu\text{C}24 μC.

After a time TTT the potential difference across the capacitor is 2.2 V2.2\text{ V}2.2 V.

After a time 2T2T2T the charge on the capacitor is Q0e2Q_0 e^{2}Q0​e2.
