The capacity of a pure capacitor is 1 farad. In D.C circuit, its effective resistance will be

  • A.Zero
  • B.Infinite
  • C.1 ohm
  • D.1/2 ohm

Answer: B

Its effective resistance in a DC circuit is infinite.

Capacitive reactance is \[X_C = \frac{1}{2\pi f C}\] and for direct current \(f = 0\), so \(X_C \rightarrow \infty\). Once the capacitor is charged no further current flows - a capacitor blocks DC and passes AC.
