Concept explainers
Charging a Capacitor See the illustration. If a charged capacitor is connected to a coil by closing a switch, energy is transferred to the coil and then back to the capacitor in an oscillatory motion. The voltage (in volts) across the capacitor will gradually diminish to 0 with time (in seconds).
(a) Graph the function relating :
(b) At what times will the graph of touch the graph of ? When does the graph of touch the graph of ?
(c) When will the voltage be between volt?
