Homework Statement
A circuit with a battery that is in parallel with a resistor R1 followed series by a capacitor, which is in parallel with a resistor R2
Homework Equations
Time constant = RC
The Attempt at a Solution
I do not know if it is correct to calculate RC with 1/Req = 1/R1 + 1/R2 or if I would only use R1 because it is in series with the capacitor. Can anyone explain?
