Question
When the switch S is toggled to the left, the capacitor C charges through the resistor R. When the switch is toggled to the right, the capacitor discharges current through the patient's torso, modeled as the resistor Rtorso, allowing the heart's normal rhythm to be reestablished.
(a)If the capacitor is initially uncharged with C = 8.25 µF and = 1270 V, find the value of R (in ohms) required to charge the capacitor to a voltage of 755 V in 1.70 s.
answer in Ω
b) If the capacitor is then discharged across the patient's torso with Rtorso = 1260 Ω, calculate the voltage (in V) across the capacitor after 4.50 ms.
answer in V

- A capacitor of capacitance C = 1 μF has been charged so that the potential difference between its plates is V0 = 295 V. The capacitor is then connected to a resistor of resistance R = 11.5 kΩ. The switch S is closed, and the capacitor begins to discharge. Calculate the time T in s after which the charge on the capacitor has decreased to one fourth its maximum value.arrow_forwardYou have the circiut below with V=60 V, C-575 μF, and R-310 ks2. You move the switch to the left position and let the capacitor become fully charged. With the capacitor fully charged, you flip the switch to the right so that the capacitor is now in a circuit with resistor R. After a time 178.25 s, the charge on the capacitor has decreased by a factor of 2.7. C R V What is the average current going through the resistor in that time? Number A.
