10.A 100-µf capacitor is connected in series with a 150-volt voltmeter that has a resistance of 1,000 ohms per volt. (a) Calculate the reading on the voltmeter at the instant when t equals the time constant following the closing of the switch that impresses 120 volts on the circuit. (b) After the capacitor is completely charged, it is discharged across the resistance of the voltmeter. What will be the reading of the voltmeter 5 and 7 sec after the capacitor starts to discharge?
