Question

In the circuit in the figure below, assume the resistance values are

and with capacitance

The emf is

The switches are labeled S.

The capacitor is initially uncharged, and both switches are open. What is the current through the battery the instant after switch S1 is closed?
A

In the circuit in the figure below, assume the resistance values are R1 = 1,400 ? and R2 = 2,300 ?, and with capacitance C1 = 65 ?F. The emf is epsilon = 5.5 V. The switches are labeled S. The capacitor is initially uncharged, and both switches are open. What is the current through the battery the instant after switch S1 is closed?
