Explanation / Answer

a)We know that,

I = Q/t

Q = CV

I = CV/t ; V(t)= A t^2

I = C A t^2/t = C A t

Hence, I(t) = C A t

b)v(t) = A t^2

A = v(t)/t^2

A = 0.26/1^2 = 0.26

A = 1.04/2^2 = 0.26

A = 2.34/3^2 = 0.26

Hence, A = 0.26

c)C = 1.1 uF ; t = 1s

I = C A t

I = 1.1 x 10^-6 x 0.26 x 1 = 0.286 x 10^-6 A

Hence, I = 0.286 micro Amperes

d)We have,

v(t) = A t^2

t = sqrt(V/A) = sqrt (850/0.26) = 57.18 s

Hence, t = 57.18 sec
