Calculate the time taken for a capacitor to lose half of its charge when the Capacitance is 330μF and the Resistance is 150kΩ

Explanation:

decay constant τ =  CR , C is capacitance , R is resistance .

= 330 x 10⁻⁶ x 150x 10³

= 49.5 s .

τ = 49.5 s.

Relation of decay of charge

Q = Q₀

Q = Q₀ / 2 , t = ?

Q₀ / 2  =  Q₀

1 / 2 =  

2 =

ln2 =

t = τ x ln2

= 49.5  x .693

= 34.3

= 34.3 s.

"i have always loved contemporary art and made it a general goal to work within the field. after a few nonprofit internships at museums and galleries, i decided to try the for-profit art world and was offered a job as the ad assistant at the magazine. i much prefer the pace of the for-profit art community and have stayed with the company for three years, with a promotion to an account manager last spring."

i just did this and got a 100.
