This circuit is used to measure the speed of a bullet with elements of the following values: Vo = 100 V, R= 25 N, C = 100 µF, d = 10 cm. R A B V. R C I d. Initially, the capacitor is charged, then the bullet cuts wire A disconnecting the battery, and later cuts wire B, leaving the capacitor isolated, whose potential difference, once both wires have been cut, is Vo / 4 a) Calculate the potential difference across the capacitor before the bullet cuts the wires, assuming the battery has been connected for a long time (show all steps). b) Determine the speed of the bullet (show all steps). c) Plot the current through the capacitor as a function of time (show all steps).
