The figure shows an experimental plot discharging of a capacitor in an RC circuit. The time constant τ of this circuit lies between:
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
During discharging of a capacitor
where 
is the time constant of RC circuit.
From the graph, 
This voltage occurs at time lies between 100sec and 500sec. Hence, time constant T of this circuit lies between 100sec and 150sec.
