उत्तर
(a) When the charge on the capacitor is zero, it acts as short circuit.
Thus, maximum value of potential difference across the resistor = ε (at t = 0)
(b) Maximum value of current in the circuit \[= \frac{\epsilon}{r}.........\left(\text{at }t = 0\right)\]
(c) Maximum value of potential difference across the capacitor = ε .............(at t = ∞, when the capacitor is fully charged and acts as a open circuit)
(d) Maximum energy stored in the capacitor \[= \frac{1}{2}C \epsilon^2.........\left(\text{at }t = \infty\right)\]
(e) Maximum power delivered by the battery \[= \frac{\epsilon^2}{r}\]
(f) Maximum power converted to heat \[= \frac{\epsilon^2}{r}\]
