In the figure below, R1 =10.0kΩ, R2 =15.0kΩ, C=0.40μF, and the ideal battery has an emf E=20.0V. First, the switch is closed until the system reaches steady state; then, the switch is opened at time t = 0 and the capacitor starts to discharge. What is the current in R2 at t = 3.00 ms?
What is the current flowing through the battery immediately after the switch is closed and through the battery a long time after the switch has been closed? Use the following data: EMF = 14.5 V, R1 = 90.0 Ω, R2 = 10.0 Ω, L = 28.0 mH.
