A capacitor is being charged with 9.6 V of the voltage supply in a RC circuit shown below. At t = 0 s, the capacitor is empty and does not have any electric charge stored in it. The resistance of the resistor in the circuit is R = 320 Ω. Answer the following questions. (a) What is the electric current in the circuit at t = 0 s? (b) At t = 3.0 s, the voltage reading across the capacitor is 2/3 of the voltage provided from the voltage supply. Find the capacitance of the capacitor. (c) What is the electric charge stored in the capacitor after a long time?

(c) What is the electric charge stored in the capacitor after a long time?
(d) After the capacitor is fully charged with 9.6 V of voltage supply, the voltage on the voltage supply is increased to 15 V. What is the electric charge stored in the capacitor after a long time?
(e) After the capacitor is fully charged with 15 V, the voltage supply is removed from the circuit and the capacitor is ready to discharge current. What is the electric current at the beginning of the discharge if the resistance remains the same?
