Textbook Question
Chapter 19, Problem 82GP
A capacitor that is initially uncharged is connected in series with a resistor and a 400.0 V emf source with negligible internal resistance. Just after the circuit is completed the current through the resistor is 0.800 mA and the time constant for the circuit is 6.00 s. What are (a) the resistance of the resistor and (b) the capacitance of the capacitor?

Example
Two charges, one with +10 μC of charge, and
another with - 7.0 μC of charge are placed in
line with each other and held at a fixed distance
of 0.45 m. Where can you put a 3rd charge of +5
μC, so that the net force on the 3rd charge is
zero?
