An uncharged capacitor is connected in series with a battery, a switch and a resistor, as shown in the figure below.
The battery has e.m.f. and negligible internal resistance. The capacitance of the capacitor is
. The switch is closed at time
. During the time interval
to
, the charge passing through the resistor is
. Determine, for the capacitor at time
, the potential difference
across the capacitor.
