An RCL circuit connected in series has R = 180 ohms, C = 1/280 farad, L = 20 henries, and an applied voltage E(t) = 10 sin t. Assuming no initial charge on the capacitor, but an initial current of 1 ampere at t = 0 when the voltage is first applied, find the subsequent charge on the capacitor at t=0.5. Use 4 decimal places.
