Problem 2
Problem: A capacitor is allowed to discharge through a 1002 resistor and the voltage across the capacitor is
measured using a voltmeter and plotted below.
(a)Write the equation for AVc(t), the voltage across the capacitor as a function of time, and give numerical
values for any constants you introduce including the time constant T.
(b)Compute the capacitance of the capacitor.
(c)How long does it take the voltage across the capacitor to decay to of its initial value? Solve the
equation you wrote using the constants in part (a) instead of reading them off of the graph.
