The circuit in the drawing shows two resistors, a capacitor and a battery. When the capacitor is fully charged, what is the magnitude of q of the charge on one of its plates?
Here's what I got so far:
So 12= 2I + 4I
Since q=CV and I have C=9.0uF, all I need is the voltage. And since the voltage drop between parallel circuits is the same then all I have to find is the voltage at the node going into 4 ohm resistor? Sounds like a good method but I can't seem to get the voltage drop.
Any ideas? :uhh:
