A capacitor is charged to a voltage of 400V and has a resistance of 20ohm. Calculate the initial value of the discharge current.(a) 10A(b) 0A(c) Infinity(d) 20AI got this question in class test.I'd like to ask this question from Charging and Discharging Currents topic in section Capacitance and Capacitors of Basic Electrical Engineering

Answer»

Right ANSWER is (b) 0A

For explanation I WOULD SAY: When the capacitor is discharging the value of the INITIAL CURRENT is zero.
