Homework Statement
.50uf capacitor is charged connecting it to a 6.0v battery then discharged through 100k ohm resistor.
. Question: Estimate the resistance of the resistor that you would use in place of the 100k ohm resistor if the discharge is to be 99% completed within about 5 secs.
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I used voltage instead of charge.
99% of 6V in 5.94V which is discharged in 5 seconds.
5.94/6= e^-5/CR
Then make the R the subject gave 995x10^5 ohm. The answer is wrong, help me please.
