It is a 3 sub-part question -

DC circuit (15 pts) Two resistors of resistance R and two capacitors of capacitance C are combined as shown in Figure 2 to form a circuit, where the battery sources a voltage E. b) Before the battery is connected to the circuit, the capacitors are uncharged. Establish the differential equation satisfied by the charge Q accumulating on the equivalent capacitor's plates, using Req and Ceq. You don't need to solve the equation!

Explanation / Answer

From the circuit C in parallel mode

Ceq= C+C=2 C

R eq= 2R [ in series mode]

The differential equation for [ R- C ] circuit is

2C dv/dt+V/2R=0
