Question

A resistor and a capacitor are connected in parallel and the combination is connected to a 120 V DC source. Determine the voltages across the resistor and the capacitor.

Answer 1

Answer:

voltages across the resistor and the capacitor are same

Explanation:

given data

resistor and a capacitor = parallel

power supply = 120 V  

                   

solution    

as we have given resistor and a capacitor both are connect in parallel in connection          

so when  resistor and a capacitor  are parallel  as directly across the source so the voltages across both components  will be same or equal

and that is equal to the source 120 V DC        

so answer is  both are same
