A 7.00 μF capacitor that is initially uncharged is connected in series with a 5.00 Ω resistor and an emf source with ℰ = 50.0 V and negligible internal resistance. Part A At the instant when the resistor is dissipating electrical energy at a rate of 300 W, how much energy has been stored in the capacitor? Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. UC =

00:01 Okay, you have a capacitor that's 160 microfarad, a resistance of 1k, and a voltage of 1100 volts.
00:09 So we charge the capacitor and then we connect the capacitor through the resistor.
00:14 We're interested in what happens as it discharges.
00:18 So our initial charge on the capacitor is cv, which is 0 .176 kool -ooms...
