Homework Statement

In the figure below, R1 = 5.0 k, R2 = 10.0 k, C = 0.600 µF, and the ideal battery has emf script e = 20.0 V. First, the switch is closed a long time so that the steady state is reached. Then the switch is opened at time t = 0. What is the current in resistor 2 at t = 4.00 ms?

Circuit schematic with a battery labeled script E, a switch at the top, resistor R1 in series along the bottom branch, and resistor R2 in parallel with capacitor C in the right branch.
