Question Detail
Question
After one time constant (T) in a charging RC circuit, approximately what fraction of the maximum charge is present on the capacitor plates?
Correct Answer
Option C is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Page 21 states that 'Charge on capacitor plates rises to ~64% of maximum value' after one time constant.
Hint
This is a direct recall of a specific percentage related to the time constant in the 'Charging a capacitor' section on page 21.
