What is the Damping Constant and Time Function in the Equation v(t)= 8ε^-106t?

[JoeMarsh2017]

Homework Statement

Determine the "Damping Constant and Time Function"
v(t)= 8ε^-106t

Homework Equations

∝=Damping Constant =
1/∝=Time Contstant = 1/DC

The Attempt at a Solution

-848ε^-106t = DC then 1/DC = *1.087x10^-49

It does not look right...Is the e in my calculator the same as the "ε" being used in the equation?

I'm not sure what you're calculating, or why you're calculating anything. Can you explain what your equation is about in your solution attempt? Where did you find a value for t?
