The expression for capacitor voltage in an RC circuit (assuming no initial charge) when DC voltage is applied is ??(?) =?s (1 - ?− (t ⁄??) ) Assume Vs = 10 V, C = 50 ??, and R = 100 . Calculate capacitor voltage when t = :
1*RC _____ 5*RC _______ 10*RC ______
2. The voltage across an inductor when a DC voltage is switched on is ?? (?)
??− ( t ⁄ ?⁄? ). Assume Vs = 10 V, L = 1 mH, and R = 1 Ohm. Find the voltage across the capacitor at t = :
0 ms __________ 1 ms __________ 10 ms __________
Derivation: Consider the equation for ? : ?? = √(1⁄??) − (?⁄2?)2
