$A$ circuit having a self-inductance of $1 \text{ H}$ carries a current of $1 \text{ A}$. To prevent sparking when the circuit is broken,a capacitor which can withstand $500 \text{ V}$ is connected across the switch. What is the minimum value of the capacitance of the capacitor (in $\mu \text{ F}$)?

  • A
    $2$
  • B
    $4$
  • C
    $6$
  • D
    $8$
