What is the time constant of a 0.001 microfarad capacitor and a 15000 ohm resistor connected in series in a dc circuit?

The same as the time constant of a 2.7 microfarad capacitor and a 33 ohm resistor connected in series.


What is the time constant of a .05 microfarad capacitor and a 200 kilo ohm resistor connected in series?

The time constant of a 0.05 microfarad capacitor and a 200 K ohm resistor in series is simply their product, 0.05 times 200,000, or 10,000 microseconds, or 10 milliseconds. (Farads times ohms = seconds)


A 10 microfard capacitor is charged through a 10 ohm resistor. How long will it take for the capacitor t fully charge?

If a 10 microfarad capacitor is charged through a 10 ohm resistor, it will theoretically never reach full charge. Practically, however, it can be considered fully charged after 5 time constants. One time constant is farads times ohms, so the time constant for a 10 microfarad capacitor and a 10 ohm resistor is 100 microseconds. Full charge will be about 500 microseconds.


What is the time constant of a 47 ohm resistor and a 47 microfarad capacitor?

The time-constant is the resistance times the capacitance, so that's 47 x 47 and because the capacitance is in microfarads, the answer is in microseconds.


What is function of capacitor in 555 IC?

the capacitor and its associated resistor set the time constant.


What is one time constant of a 4.7 μF capacitor in series with a 22 kΩ resistor?

The time constant of a 4.7 µF capacitor in series with a 22 KΩ resistor is about 103 ms.


How do you change time constant of capacitor?

In theory ... on paper where you have ideal components ... a capacitor all by itself doesn't have a time constant. It charges instantly. It only charges exponentially according to a time constant when it's in series with a resistor, and the time constant is (RC). Keeping the same capacitor, you change the time constant by changing the value of the resistor.


What is the time constant of a series RC circuit consisting of a 2000 ohm resistor and a 10 microfarad capasitor?

In an RC network,the Time Constant τ (tau) is calculated as shown below. τ = RC For a 10 kOhm and 100 microFarad RC network: τ = 10000 x 100x10-6 τ = 1 second


What is the time constant of a 2 microfarad capacitor in series with a 2 kilo ohm resistor?

Time constant = capacitance x resistance --> farads x ohms simplifies to units of seconds. (2 x 10-6 farads) x (2 x 103 ohms) = 4 x 10-3 seconds


Why is capacitor leakage a problem in a RC timer circuit?

Because the timing is set by the time constant of a resistor and a capacitor. With R in ohms and C in Farads, the time-constant is RC in seconds. If the capacitor leaks the timing will be wrong.


What is the act of recovering energy from Capacitor?

A: It is called discharging a capacitor. The charge will follow the rules of a time constant set up by the series resistor and the capacitor. 1 time constant 63% of the charge will be reached and continue at that rate.
