Question

Transcribed Image Text:**Problem 1**
The switch in the following circuit has been closed for a long time. At \( t = 0 \)s the switch opens instantaneously. Find:
a) The initial capacitor voltage (assume DC conditions);
b) The value of \( v_0(t) \) for \( t \geq 0 \)s
**Circuit Diagram Description:**
- The circuit consists of a 6 V DC voltage source connected in series with a 2 kΩ resistor.
- A switch is present and labeled to open at \( t = 0 \).
- Beyond the switch, a 4 kΩ resistor is connected in series with a parallel branch containing a 3 mF capacitor, labeled with \( v_0 \) across its terminals.
- The total circuit forms a loop when the switch is closed before \( t = 0 \).
