Q.

VC is the ideal voltmeter in the figure. Resistance of the resistor shown is R. Initially the switch is in position 2 when charging of the capacitor starts. Initially the capacitor was uncharged. The switch in circuit shifts automatically from 2 to 1 when VC>2V/3 and goes back to 2 from 1 when VC<V/3. The ideal voltmeter reads voltage across capacitor as plotted. What is the period T of the wave form in terms of R and C?

Detailed Solution

t1  is the time of capacitor to discharge from 2V/3 to V/3. For this, V32V3et1/τ

or    t1=τ  ln2=RC  ln  2

Question Image

 

t2 is time for charging of capacitor from V/3 to 2V/3.

So VC/32VC/3dqVCq=0t2dtRC

or     t2=RCln  2

T=t1+t2=2RC  ln2
