उत्तर

The decay of charge across a capacitor,

\[q = Q e^{- \frac{t}{RC}}\]

Here, q = 0.1 % and Q = 1 × 10−3 Q

⇒ 1 × 10−3 Q = \[Q e^{- \frac{t}{RC}}\]

\[\Rightarrow e^{- \frac{t}{RC}}=10^{-3}\]

\[\Rightarrow \frac{t}{rC} = - \left( - 6 . 9 \right) = 6 . 9\]

Let t = nRC

\[\Rightarrow \frac{nRC}{RC} = 6 . 9\]

\[ \Rightarrow n = 6 . 9\]
