Question
can you show me how to do q2
Explanation / Answer
2a) current will not flow into capacitor and whatever current flows through 1 ohm resistor will flow in 4ohm resistor.
And we know that for same current in series, the potential difference is proportional to resistance.
Hence Voltage at left end of capacitor =10*4/(4+1) = 8V
Similarly voltage at right end of capacitor = 10*2/(8+2) = 2V
Potential across capacitor = 8-2 = 6V
Charge = CV = 1*6 = 6 C answer
B) Equivalent resistance = (4+2)*(8+1)/((4+2)+(8+1)) =3.6ohm,
energy = 0.5CV^2
So energy will become half if the voltage becomes 1/sqrt2 =0.707 times
V = Vo * e^(-t/RC)
0.707 = e^(-t/3.6*1)
ln 0.707 = - t/3.6
t = - 3.6 * ln 0.707
= 1.248 s answer
