Question
Consider the circuit shown in the diagram. Before the switch is closed, both capacitors are uncharged.
V=9 V
C1=3.0 μF
C2=4.5 μF
R1=80 Ω
R2=20 Ω
R3=70 Ω
C2
R,
V
R,
R.
Transcribed Image Text:C2 R, V R, R.
Immediately after the switch is closed, what is the amount of current supplied by the battery?
Iinitial =
A
Assuming the switch remains closed for a long time, which capacitor will be the first to reach 95% of its final
charge level?
What is the time constant for charging this capacitor?
T =
us
