We have not talked about anything regarding capacitors in class yet, let alone time constants. I vaguely remember them from a physics class I took last year, but I was able to figure out the solution to this problem after re-reading the chapter in the book...it ends up I was over-complicating...
Homework Statement
A 1.0 micro Farads capacitor is connected in series with a 16 Ohms resistor as shown in the figure. If the voltage across the capacitor is Vc(t) = 18 cos(1000t) V, what is the voltage across the resistor, VR, at t = 1 s?
Note: The voltage frequency is in radians per...
