Finding Max and Min in Oscillating LRC Circuit

AI Thread Summary
In an oscillating LC circuit with inductance L = 3.00 mg and capacitance C = 2.70 * 10^-6, the maximum charge on the capacitor can be calculated using the formula Q_m = C * U_m. The discussion highlights the initial conditions where the charge is zero and the current is 2.00 A, prompting questions about the maximum charge, the earliest time for maximum energy storage, and the greatest rate. Participants express confusion about the concepts but receive guidance that simplifies the problem-solving process. Ultimately, the assistance provided leads to a successful resolution of the circuit analysis.

In an oscillating LC circuit L = 3.00 mg and C = 2.70 * 10^-6. At t=0 the charge on the capacitor is zero and the current is 2.00 Am.

What is the maximum charge that will appear on the capacitor?
The earliest time where energy stored in the capacitor is the greatest?
What is the greatest rate?

Our teacher just barely touched upon finding the max and the mins in the oscillating of a LRC circuit. I haven't a clue even where to start. Could i get some help setting up the problem?

thanks a bunch. it was much easier than i thought. i finished the rest of the problem with ease. thank you!

Thread 'Voltmeter readings for this circuit with switches'

TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...

Thread 'Correct statement about a reservoir with an outlet pipe'

The answer to this question is statements (ii) and (iv) are correct. (i) This is FALSE because the speed of water in the tap is greater than speed at the water surface (ii) I don't even understand this statement. What does the "seal" part have to do with water flowing out? Won't the water still flow out through the tap until the tank is empty whether the reservoir is sealed or not? (iii) In my opinion, this statement would be correct. Increasing the gravitational potential energy of the...
