    RC Circuit discharge question -

    Thanks for responding so quickly, I'm getting a little overwhelmed here. Given the energy equation you get Vo = sqrt(2E/C). plugging into V(t), V= sqrt(2E/C) e^(-t/RC) But when you do the math, you don't have the original E so you can't solve it. The question is multiple choice with values...
