Question

Transcribed Image Text:2. The voltage drop across a capacitor with capacitance C is given by q(t)/C, where q is
the charge on the capacitor. Hence, for the RC series circuit, Kirchhop's second law
gives
Ri +
a = E(t)
But current i and charge q are related by i = dq/dt. So, the above equation becomes
1
dt
T9 = E(t)
Use this differential equation to solve the following:
(a) A 100 volt electromotive force is applied an RC series circuit in which the
resistance is 200 ohms and the capacitance is 10-4 farad. Find the charge q(t) on
the capacitor if q(0) = 0. Find the current i(t).
Ans(t) = rOu (1 – e-50(); i(t) = }e=50t
100
(b) Let R = 10 ohms and C = 0.1 farad. Let E(t) be exponentially decaying, say, E(t) =
30e-3t volts. Assuming q(0) = 0, find and graph q(t). At what time does q(t) reach
a maximum? What is that maximum charge?
Ans: q(t) = 1.5(e-t-e-3); q'(t) = 0 gives tm = 0.549; qm = 0.577 coulomb
