Solving RC Circuit Questions: How to Find Charge/Current
Circuits question!? A series RC circuit consists of a 550-µF capacitor (initially uncharged) and a 12-kOhm resistor. The combination is connected across a 12-V battery; 3.0 s later, what is (a) the charge on the capacitor, (b) the current in the resistor? I really just want to know...- joedirt
