Chapter 27, Problem 25P
In the circuit of Figure P27.25, the switch S has been open for a long time. It is then suddenly closed. Take ε = 10.0 V, R1 = 50.0 kΩ, R2 = 100 kΩ, and C = 10.0 μF. Determine the time constant (a) before the switch is closed and (b) after the switch is closed. (c) Let the switch be closed at t = 0. Determine the current in the switch as a function of time.

You connect a battery, resistor, and capacitor as in (Figure 1), where R = 14.0 Ω and C = 3.00 ×10^-6 F. The switch S is closed at t = 0. When the current in the circuit has magnitude 3.00 A, the charge on the capacitor is 40.0 × 10^−6 C.
At what time t after the switch is closed is the charge on the capacitor equal to 40.0 x 10^-6 C?
When the current has magnitude 3.00 A, at what rate is energy being stored in the capacitor?
