I only need help with part e)
Answer the following questions.
1. Why does the voltage across the resistor for charging and discharging processes
change the sign from positive to negative? Hint: think about the direction of current.
2. Does the voltage V across the resistor for charging and discharging obey by the same
equation: V = Vo eRC
3. What is the sum of the voltages across the capacitor Vc and across the resistor VR at
any point in time during the charging and discharging processes?
Use a snipping tool to copy and paste the waveform chart and graph for the charging and
discharging curves into the lab report.
Please solve this and show all steps
