Question
There are two capacitors and both have a capacitance of C. In one circuit, the two capacitors are connected in series, and then in series with a resistor R1. In another circuit, the two capacitors are connected in parallel, and then in series with a resistor R2. If both of the two circuits have the same time constant, which resistor is larger______? R1 is larger R2 is larger R1=R2 Based on the question above, if respectively connecting each of the two circuits with a voltage source Vo, and plotting the V-t graph (just like what we did in class), which case has a larger Vmax in the graph______? the case in which two capacitors are connected in series the case in which two capacitors are connected in parallel these two cases has the same VmaxExplanation / Answer
time cinstant =RC
R1C1 =R2C2=constant
11)In the first circuit,
capacitors are connected in series , the ressultalnt capacitance is reduced.
consequently R1 must be larger.
answer (a).
