RC Circuits
If you have an RC circuit with a resistance of 200 ohms and a capacitance of 35 microfarads, what is the time constant? Time Constant= ? s
This time constant represents how much time it will take to reach 63% of maximum.
If the RC circuit is connected to an EMF of 12.0 V, what will be its voltage after 5.0 ms? Voltage after 5.0 ms= ? V
Draw what the voltage looks like in a charging RC circuit as a function of time?
Say now that your capacitor is fully charged, and the voltage source is removed. What will be the capacitors voltage after 10.0 ms? Voltage after 10.0 ms= ? V
How much time would this RC circuit take to discharge to half of its starting voltage? Time to discharge to 1/2 voltage= ? s
Draw what the voltage looks like in a discharging RC circuit as a function of time?
(where there is a question mark, that is what I need help with)

In the circuit shown in (Figure 1), the switch S has been closed for a long time.
a. What is the output voltage Vout? Now the switch is opened and the output voltage increases. When the output voltage reaches 10.0 V, the switch closes and then the capacitor begins to discharge. When the output voltage reaches 5.0 V, the switch opens again. Thus this circuit undergoes periodic cycles of charging and discharging.b. What is the time constant during a charging phase?c. What is the time constant during a discharging phase?d. What length of time passes between subsequent 10.0 V output voltages?e. If...
