Hi can you answer these two questions for me? Thanks you in advance.

1) A capacitor is connected across the terminals of a battery. Does the amount of charge that eventually appears on the capacitor plates depend on the internal resistance of the battery?

2) Five wires of the same length and diameter are connected in turn between two points maintained at constant potential difference. Will internal energy be developed at a faster rate in the wire of (A) the smallest or (B) the largest resistance.

Explanation / Answer

1)

NO, the final charge does not depend on the internal resistance.

the amount of charge depends on voltage of battery and capacitance

2)

as the wires are connected in series , the current in the resistances will be same

the larger heat will be dissipaated in larger resitance.

B) the largest
