Answer:

(a) 12 seconds (b) t = 8.31 seconds (c) 10µ A (d) V = 20 V (e) V =0

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

C = 6 µ which is = 6 * 10^ ⁻6

R = 2 MΩ, which is = 2 * 10^ 6

ε = 20 V

(a) When it is at the time constant we have the following:

λ = CR

= 6 * 10^ ⁻6 * 2 * 10^ 6

λ =12 seconds

(b) We solve for the half life of the circuit which is given below:

d₀ = d₀ [ 1- e ^ ⁺t/CR

d = decay mode]

d₀/2 =  d₀  1- e ^ ⁺t/12

2^⁻1 = e ^ ⁺t/12

Thus

t/12 ln 2

t = 12 * ln 2

t = 12 * 0.693

t = 8.31 seconds

(c) We find the current at t = 0

So,

I = d₀/dt

I = d₀/dt e ^ ⁺t/CR

= CE/CR e ^ ⁺t/CR

E/R e ^ ⁺t/CR

Thus,

at t = 0

I  E/R = 20/  2 * 10^ 6

= 10µ A

(d) We find the voltage across the capacitor at t = 0 which is shown below:

V = IR

= 10 * 10^ ⁻6 * 2 * 10^ 6

V = 20 V

(e)  We solve for he voltage across the resistor.

At t = 0

I = 0

V =0
