- A fully charged capacitor with capacitance of C= 80 uF is being discharged. If the total electric resistance of the circuit is 24.0 k and the initial voltage of capacitor is V=10 V, then: a) How long does it take for the capacitor to discharge by 70%? b) Calculate the energy lost from the capacitor by this time? c) Calculate the heat energy produced in the resistor by this time. d) Are the values of energies in parts c and d expected to be the same? Explain.arrow_forwardA 1 uF capacitor is connected in series with a 2 uF capacitor and an open switch. Initially, the voltage across the open switch is 12 V and the voltages across the two capacitors are equal. a) b) Draw this circuit, marking on your diagram values of voltage V, charge Q and stored energy E in appropriate places. The switch is now closed. A current will flow, and excess energy will be dissipated in heat in the wires. Make a second diagram showing the final values of the voltages V, charges Q and stored energies, and state the amount of energy dissipated.
