Question

Separation between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor, connected to a battery (zero resistance) of constant e.m.f., is increased with constant (very slow) speed by external forces. During the process, W is the work done by external forces. If U is the change in potential energy of the capacitor, Wb is the work done by the battery and H is the heat loss in the circuit. Then

Solution

The correct option is A W+Wb=ΔU
C=ϵ0AX andq=ϵ0AXE
i=dqdt=ϵ0AEx2dxdt

Since current is finite in the circuit and resistance is zero, therefore heat loss in the circuit is zero.
