Step 1
To find the Thevenin equivalent generator between A and B, we need to determine the Thevenin voltage (Vth) and the Thevenin resistance (Rth). To find Vth, we can consider the circuit without the capacitor and the switch K. In this case, the circuit becomes a Show more…

In the circuit shown below, the capacitor is uncharged at time t = 0. If the switch is then closed, find the currents i1 and i2, and the charge on the capacitor at time t greater than zero. [HINT: Write KVL for 2 loops...loop #1 is battery + 10 Ω resistor + capacitor. Loop #2 is battery + 10 Ω resistor + 40 Ω resistor]. Obtain 2 equations for 2 unknowns (i1, i2). Combine to generate single equation for say i1, and then solve by Laplace Transforms]
