Question

A capacitor of capacitance C is connected with resistance R. The time constant of the circuit would be:

Options
  • A

    RC

  • B

    R/C

  • C

    e^RC

  • D

    R+C

Explanation

yes because of givThe RC time constant, also called tau, the time constant (in seconds) of an RC circuit, is equal to the product of the circuit resistance (in ohms) and the circuit capacitance (in farads)
