Chapter 23, Problem 72GP
The capacitor in Figure P23.72 is initially uncharged and the switch, in position c, is not connected to either side of the circuit. The switch is now Hipped to position a for 10 ms, then to position b for 10 ms, and then brought back to position c. What is the final potential difference across the capacitor?

1.62 On a training flight, a Figure P1.62
student pilot flies from Lincoln,
Nebraska, to Clarinda, Iowa, next
to St. Joseph, Missouri, and then to
Manhattan, Kansas (Fig. P1.62). The
directions are shown relative to north:
0° is north, 90° is east, 180° is south,
and 270° is west. Use the method of
components to find (a) the distance
she has to fly from Manhattan to get
back to Lincoln, and (b) the direction
(relative to north) she must fly to get
there. Illustrate your solutions with a
vector diagram.
