Question

In the figure below, what is the potential difference between the points A and B and between B and C respectively in steady state? 

• A. \(V_{AB}=V_{BC}=100\,\text{V}\)
• B. \(V_{AB}=75\,\text{V},\, V_{BC}=25\,\text{V}\)
• C. \(V_{AB}=25\,\text{V},\, V_{BC}=75\,\text{V}\)
• D. VAB=VBC=50V

Hint:

In steady state DC, capacitors block current completely.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: In steady state, capacitors act as open circuits.
Step 2: Voltage divides equally across equal resistances.
Step 3: Total voltage =100V: VAB = VBC = 50V
