Question

Transcribed Image Text:3. Suppose that you have a current that drops off with time such that
I (t) = Ioe/T,
where I, is the current at time t = 0 and t is a constant.
(a) How long docs it take the current to fall to 1/3 of it's maximum valuc?
(b) What is the total charge that flows through the current from time t = 0 until
t = o0?
(c) How long does it take for half of the charge you found in part b to flow?
