Question

6 ? 1.5 ? t = 0 27 V + 0.02 F vc(t) i(t) - 6V + 0.25 H Consider the circuit shown above. The switch in the circuit shown has been closed for a long time and is opened instantaneously at t = 0 as indicated in the diagram. (a) [1 mark] Find the voltage across in the capacitor vC(0-) and current i(0-) before the switch opens. (b) [2 marks] For t > 0, what type of damping will the circuit exhibit and why? (c) [7 marks] Find i(t) for t > 0 using ONLY time-domain methods.
