What is the charge Q on the capacitor immediately after the switch is changed?
What is the current I through the resistor immediately after the switch is changed?
37. BIO Figure P18.37 shows a simplified model of a cardiac defibrillator, a device used to
resuscitate patients in ventricular fibrillation. When the switch S is toggled to the left, the
capacitor C charges through the resistor R. When the switch is toggled to the right, the
capacitor discharges current through the patient's torso, modeled as the resistor Ruorso ,
allowing the heart's normal rhythm to be reestablished.
a. If the capacitor is initially uncharged with C = 8.00 µF and ɛ = 1250 V, find the value
of R required to charge the capacitor to a voltage of 775 V in 1.50 s.
b. If the capacitor is then discharged across the patient's torso with Rorso = 1250 N,
calculate the voltage across the capacitor after 5.00 ms.
