2. Electric Potential and Capacitance
medium
A fully charged capacitor has a capacitance $‘C’$. It is discharged through a small coil of resistance wire embedded in a thermally insulated block of specific heat capacity $‘s’$ and mass $‘m’$. If the temperature of the block is raised by ‘$\Delta T$’, the potential difference $‘V’$ across the capacitance is
A
$\frac{{ms\Delta T}}{C}$
B
$\sqrt {\frac{{2ms\Delta T}}{C}} $
C
$\sqrt {\frac{{2mC\Delta T}}{s}} $
D
$\frac{{mC\Delta T}}{s}$
(AIEEE-2005)
Solution
(b) $\frac{1}{2}C{V^2} = m.s.\Delta T$ $==>$ $V = \sqrt {\frac{{2ms\Delta T}}{C}} $
