RC Circuits
Capacitor in DC No current flows through a capacitor in DC (I constant)
Charging and discharging a Capacitor 1.-When the direction of the current flow is toward the positive plate of a capacitor, then 2. When the direction of current flow is away from the positive plate of a capacitor, then
Charging a Capacitor (1) What happens when we close switch S?
Charging a Capacitor (2) I becomes almost zero after some time Q becomes after some time Time constant
Charging a Capacitor (3)
Discharging a Capacitor (1) What happens when we close switch S?
Discharging a Capacitor (2) I becomes zero after some time Q becomes zero after some time Time constant
Discharging a Capacitor (3)
