Question 1
With the circuit parameters as specified and empty initial charge on the capacitor:
a) Determine the initial current through the capacitor in the instant you switch the power supply on. b) Draw the charging voltage curve through the capacitor, with the time constant and the maximum voltage numerically and clearly indicated.
Tip: Thévenin equivalent circuit approach greatly simplifies this problem, if you know how.
