Consider two resistors with resistances of R1 = 28 kΩ and R2 = 107 kΩ as well as two capacitors with capacitances of C1 = 2.9 μF and C2 = 12 μF.

** please dont skip any steps since im still learning how to do these problems and skipping some of the steps confuses me, thanks! **

(a)  Consider a circuit where the two resistors are placed with one another in series and then connected to the two capacitors which are also in series. What is the RC time constant of this circuit in seconds? 

(b)  Consider a circuit where the two resistors are placed with one another in parallel and then connected to the two capacitors which are also in parallel. What is the RC time constant of this circuit in seconds? 

(c)  Consider a circuit where the two resistors are placed with one another in series and then connected to the two capacitors which are placed in parallel with each other. What is the RC time constant of this circuit in seconds? 

(d)  Consider a circuit where the two resistors are placed with one another in parallel and then connected to the two capacitors which are placed in series with each other. What is the RC time constant of this circuit in seconds?
