Consider the RCcircuit shown in Figure 2144. Find (a)the time constant and (b) the initial current for this circuit. (c) It is desired to increase the time constant of this circuit by adjusting the value of the resistor. Should the resistance of this resistor be increased or decreased to have the desired effect? Explain.
