In the circuit given in Fig. switch S is at position 1 for long time. Find the total heat generated in resistor of resistance , when the switch S is shifted from position 1 to position 2
None
Step I: when the switch is at position 1: Since circuit is in the steady state, the current through circuit is zero
According to the loop rule,
Step II: When the switch is at position 2: In this case, the total energy stored on the capacitor appears as heat energy in the resistor
