The capacitor below is initially uncharged. The switch is first thrown to position a. What is the current through the resistor as a function of time while the capacitor is charging? Be sure to show the direction. What’s the power delivered to the resistor as a function of time while the capacitor is charging? When the capacitor is charged to a potential difference of 13 V, the switch is thrown to position b. What’s the current through the resistor as a function of time while the capacitor is discharging? Be sure to show the direction. What’s the power delivered to the resistor while the capacitor is discharging?
