Could someone please help me figure out part C? I've tried several times and can't seem to get it correct!

Consider a series RC circuit as in the figure below for which R = 1.30 Mn, C = 4.50 F, and = 29.5 v. C (a) Find the time constant of the circuit. 5.850 (b) Find the maximum charge on the capacitor after the switch is thrown closed 32.8 (c) Find the current in the resistor 10.0 s after the switch is closed. 41 what mathematical function describes the time dependence of the current in an RC circuit? A

Explanation / Answer

(A) I = I0 [e^(-t/T)]

T = 5.85 sec

I0 = e/ R = 29.5 / (1.30 x 10^6) = 2.27 x 10^-5 A

t = 10 s

putting values,

I = 4.11 x 10^-6 A Or 4.11 mu A
