01․ A capacitor is connected to supply with switch and the switch is connected between capacitor and supply. Initially switch is open at time zero, and then switch is closed. Then how capacitor behaves at time t = 0+?
In case of a capacitor, voltage across it does not change instantaneously. If an uncharged capacitor is connected to an energy source, at the time of switching, the capacitor will behave like a short circuit.

08․ A 20 μF capacitor and 200 W, 220 V lamp is connected in series across a 220 V alternating supply. In which frequency of the supply the lamp will glow dimmest?
The impedance of capacitor is inversely proportional to its supply frequency. The impedance offered by the capacitor to the circuit is more when supply frequency is less. If impedance is more, current flowing through the circuit (i.e. lamp) is less. Lamp will glow dimmest when minimum current will flow i.e when frequency is minimum.
09․ A 10 μF capacitor and 100 W, 220 V lamp is connected in series across a 220 V alternating supply. In which frequency of the supply the lamp will glow brightest?
The impedance of capacitor is inversely proportional to its supply frequency. The impedance offered by the capacitor to the circuit is more when supply frequency is less. If impedance is less, current flowing through the circuit (i.e. lamp) is more. Lamp will glow brightest when maximum current will flow i.e when frequency is maximum.
