A 6.60 F capacitor that is initially uncharged is connected in series with a 470

Question

A 6.60 F capacitor that is initially uncharged is connected in series with a 4700 resistor and a 505 V emf source with negligible internal resistance.

Part A

Just after the circuit is completed, what is the voltage drop across the capacitor?

Part B

Just after the circuit is completed, what is the voltage drop across the resistor?

Part C

Just after the circuit is completed, what is the charge on the capacitor?

Part D

Just after the circuit is completed, what is the current through the resistor?

Part E

A long time after the circuit is completed (after many time constants), what are the values of the preceding four quantities?

Answer in the order indicated. Separate your answers with commas.

Explanation / Answer

A)

V = 0    Since charge stored in the capacitor is zero initially

B)

V = 505 volts

all the Voltage of the battery appears across the resistor.

C)

Q = 0

d)

i = V/ R = 505/4700 = 0.11 A
