*62 Figure 27-64 shows the circuit of
a flashing lamp, like those attached to
barrels at highway construction sites.
The fluorescent lamp L (of negligible
capacitance) is connected in parallel
across the capacitor C of an RC circuit.
There is a current through the lamp
only when the potential difference
across it reaches the breakdown volt-

age V1; then the capacitor discharges completely through the lamp
and the lamp flashes briefly. For a lamp with breakdown voltage
VL = 72.0 V, wired to a 95.0 V ideal battery and a 0.150 µF capacitor,
what resistance Ris needed for two flashes per second?
A capacitor of capacitance C = 3 uF has been charged so that the potential difference between its plates is V0 = 245V. The capacitor is then connected to a resistor of resistance R = 14 kOhm. The switch S is closed, and the capacitor begins to discharge.
C = 3 uF
V0 = 245 V
R = 14 kOhm
(b) Calculate the charge Q0 on the capacitor before the switch is closed, in coulombs.
(d) Calculate the potential difference VC in volts between the capacitor plates at time t = 5.0 ms after the switch is closed.
