A circuit is constructed with four resistors,
one capacitor, one battery and a switch as
shown. The values for the resistors are: R1 =
R2 = 21 Q, R3 = 108 Q and R4 = 101 Q. The
capacitance is C = 59 µF and the battery
voltage is V = 12 V. The positive terminal of
the battery is indicated with a + sign.
