Should the time constant be different for the charging and discharging capacitor? Why or why not?
The charging or discharging time constant is equal to RC only as whether it is charging or discharging the capacitance and resistor values remain the same
Should the time constant be different for the charging and discharging capacitor? Why or why not?
1 a) Describe what happens to voltage during both charging and discharging of a capacitor. b) Describe what happens to current during both charging and discharging of a capacitor. c) Describe how changing the resistance affects both charging and discharging of a capacitor.
3 Capacitor Discharging Current The capacitor voltage versus time in a discharging series RC circuit, as shown in the Background Information Figure 2, is Vo(t) = V, expl-Roc), +20 (3) where V, is the source voltage in Volts, exp(x) is the exponential functione, Rp is the discharging resistance in Ohms (N), C is the capacitance in Farads. To = Rp is the discharging time constant in seconds. Derive an expression for the capacitor discharging current versus time, .(t), in terms...
Thought Experiment: Explain what is physically happening to the charge in the RC circuit during charging and discharging cycles (i.e. Why does the capacitor charge/discharge quickly at first but slows down with more time? Where is the charge going?). In the DC Electrical Circuits lab, we used the analogy of water flowing through a pipe to visualize Ohm's law can you extend that analogy to the RC circuit? *

7.What's so special about 0.63 and 0.37 in the cases of charging and discharging a capacitor with a Resistor in the circuit? Explain each case?
For charging process, the voltage across the capacitor as a function of time is given by, Vc = [1 - exp(-t/)]. (a) When the time is twice the time constant, what percentage of the maximum voltage is on the capacitor? (b) Find the time it took, in terms of the time constant, for the voltage across the capacitor to be 30% of the maximum voltage. Resistor 1000 Ohms Capacitor 1 Farad Power Supply set to 6 Volts
Looking at a RC circuit, using resistors and capacitors, calculate the RC time constant for discharging and charging capacitors. The voltage from the power supply is 10V. V = 0.63*V0, V = 0.37*V0
Resistor - 100 mega-ohms
capacitor - .47 micro farads
