Question

Use the exact values you enter to make later calculations. You monitor the voltage difference across a capacitor in an RC circuit as time passes and find the following results. Time when V = 0 Time when V = (0.63Vmax) = 6.50 volts 0.020 s 0.050 s (a) If the equivalent resistance of your circuit is 500.0 , calculate the capacitance of the circuit. C = 8.33 e-5 F Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. . An unknown error occurred. Please try again. (b) Using this capacitance in your calculation, find the charge on the capacitor when it is fully charged.

Explanation / Answer

a)

RC=0.05s

500*C=0.05s

C=0.05/500=1*10-4 F

b)

Q=CV

=1*10-4 * (6.50/0.63)

=1.03*10-3 C
