When a capacitor is fully charged, the current through the capacitor in a direct-current circuit is
 a. zero.
  b. at its maximum value. c. equal to the current in a resistive circuit in parallel with the capacitor circuit.
  d. greater than the current in a resistor that is farther from the battery than the capacitor.
  e. zero if it is the only capacitor, but maximum if there is another capacitor in series with it.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
