I have a quick question.
part of one of my questions asks
"Find the rate at which thermal energy is produced in a resistor"
i havn't included the whole question because i don't think it matters, its just like the last part of it
so we have
http://edugen.wiley.com/edugen/courses/crs1650/art/math/halliday8019c27/math148.gif
thats the discharge of energy out of the capacitor
so
would the inverse of that be the rate at which the energy is moved into the resistor
like
1/u = 2ce/q (i left out a lot of things but thatsl ike the base of it)
orr
do you juts switch the e^- to e^+
because e^- is decay and e^+ is growth
yeh I am just abit confused which is right, or if either is right haha.
thanks
