A 10-μF Capacitor Is Charged Until It Acquires a Potential Difference

question 29

Multiple Choice

A 1.0-μF capacitor is charged until it acquires a potential difference of $900.0 \mathrm {~V}$ across its plates, and then the emf source is removed. If the capacitor is then discharged through a $500.0 - \mathrm { k } \Omega$ resistance, what is the voltage drop across the capacitor $9.0 \mathrm {~ms}$ after beginning the discharge?

• A) 880 V
• B) 920 V
• C) 16 V
• D) -16 V
