A resistance R and a capacitor C are connected in series to a source $\text{V}=\text{V}_0\sin\omega\text{t}.$
Find:
  1. The peak value of the voltage across the (i) resistance and (ii) capacitor.
  2. The phase difference between the applied voltage and current. Which of them is ahead?

$\text{I}_0=\frac{\text{V}_0}{\sqrt{\text{R}^2+\text{X}^2_\text{c}}}$
  1. Peak Voltage Across.
  1. Resistance R is $\text{V}_\text{R}=\text{I}_0\text{R}=\frac{\text{V}_0\text{R}}{\sqrt{\text{R}^2+\text{X}^2_\text{C}}}$
  2. Capacitor C is $\text{V}_\text{C}=\text{I}_0\text{X}_\text{C}=\frac{\text{I}_0\text{X}_\text{C}}{\sqrt{\text{R}^2+\text{X}^2_\text{C}}}$
  1.  

$\phi=\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{V}_\text{C}}{\text{V}_\text{R}}\Big)=\tan^{-1}\Big(\frac{\text{X}_\text{C}}{\text{R}}\Big)=$ Phase difference between V & I is ahead of V.

    Explain briefly the process of charging a parallel plate capacitor when it is connected across a d.c. battery. A capacitor of capacitance ‘C’ is charged to ‘V’ volts by a battery. After some time the battery is disconnected, and the distance between the plates is doubled. Now a slab of dielectric constant, 1 < k < 2, is introduced to fill the space between the plates. How will the following be affected:
    1. The electric field between the plates of the capacitor.
    2. The energy stored in the capacitor.
    Justify your answer by writing the necessary expressions.
