Question
**Problem 5:**

Define the initial voltage \( V_i \), the final voltage \( V_f \), the time constant \( \tau \), and the voltage \( v \) at 20 ms. The switch is closed at \( t = 0 \).

**Circuit Diagram:**

- The circuit consists of a 10 V voltage source.
- A capacitor \( C \) with a capacitance of 2.2 µF is connected in series.
- A resistor \( R \) with a resistance of 10 kΩ is also connected in series.
- There is a switch in series that is closed at \( t = 0 \).

The task requires calculating specific parameters related to this RC circuit when the switch is closed. The components and their values indicate that the circuit is a simple resistor-capacitor (RC) charging circuit.
