When a 470 micro farad capacitor is discharged through a fixed resistor R, the pd across it decreases by 80% in 45 s. Calculate the time constant of the circuit

Using the equation V=V0e-t/RC where RC is the time constant to be calculated: We know that the pd decreases by 80%, therefore the pd remaining, V is 0.2*V0. Putting this i...

The first term of an arithmetic series is a and the common difference is d. The 12th term is 66.5 and the 19th term is 98. Write down two equations in a and d then solve these simultaneous equations to find a and d.

The first step is to recall the formula for arithmetic progressions: u(n) = a + (n-1)d We can then put all the information given in the question into this so u(12) = 66.5 = a + 11d and u(19) = 98 = a ...
