PC.1 Because the capacitor voltage is zero at t = 0, the charge on the
capacitor is zero at t = 0. Then using Equation 3.5 in the text, we have

PC.2 Refer to Figure PC.2 in the book. Combining the 10- resistance and the
20- resistance we obtain a resistance of 6.667 , which is in series
with the 5- resistance. Thus, the total resistance seen by the 15-V
source is 5 + 6.667 = 11.667 . The source current is 15/11.667 = 1.286
A. The current divides between the 10- resistance and the 20-
resistance. Using Equation 2.27, the current through the 10-
resistance is
