    How Do You Calculate Time in a Charging Capacitor Equation?

    Thanks guys. I think our lecturer intends for us to sort of 'have a guess' by inspection and using time constant ratios than actually solve this, so I can leave it for another day, phew! Thank you for the feedback nonetheless.

    How Do You Calculate Time in a Charging Capacitor Equation?

    Homework Statement Solving the equation: V = V0*[1 - e^(-t/RC)]Homework Equations Need to solve this equation for time to calculate the time at which a charging capacitor achieves a certain voltage across it's plates.The Attempt at a Solution I solve it as: t = -RC*ln(V/V0) but this doesn't...
