When a capacitor, in RC circuit, is fully charged, the current through the resistor is Select one: zero if it is the only capacitor, but maximum if there is another capacitor in series with it. At its maximum value. Greater than the current in a resistor that is farther from the battery than the capacitor. Zero. Equal to the current in a resistive circuit in parallel with the capacitor circuit.

Answer:

The correct option is "Zero". A further explanation is given below.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know,

The capacitor is given by:


Q=C* V

Rate of change with respect to the time will be:


(dQ)/(dt)=C* (dV)/(dt)

Now,

It is mentioned in the question that the capacitor is completely charged, then


(dV)/(dt)=0

i.e.,


(dQ)/(dt)=0

All other choices available aren't related to that same scenario in question. So the answer above is the perfect one.
