Expert Solution
Step 1

Given: A charged capacitor is connected in series with a resistor and an inductor at t = 0 as shown in figure below:

Electrical Engineering homework question answer, step 1, image 1

Step 2

Order of the circuit is two, with characteristic equation roots given as s1,2=-α±α2-ω02.

Here,

α=R2L,ω0=1LC.

Substituting the values,

α=R2L=19.42×8.68×10-3=1117.51,ω0=1LC=18.68×10-3×7.32×10-6=396.72.

α>ω0, we have the overdamped case.

The voltage across capacitor after time t = 0, has a form

vct=Ae-s1t+Be-s2t.
