Question

Using the exact exponential treatment, determine how much time is required to charge an initially uncharged 100-pF capacitor through a 75.0-MΩ resistor to 90.0% of its final voltage.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Write the given values with suitable variables.

R=75 =75×106 ΩC=100 pF=100×10-12 FVV0=0.9

Here, R denotes the resistance, C denotes the capacitance, V denotes the final voltage, and V0 denotes the initial voltage.
