Discharging a Capacitor
 

Discharging a Capacitor problem 1


Two capacitors of capacitances and , and a resistor of resistance , are connected into the circuit shown below.




The battery has an e.m.f. of . The two-way switch is now moved to position Y. Determine the time taken for the potential difference (p.d.) across the capacitor to become .
