Q
The reverse pressure caused by the stretched membrane is proportional to the
quantity of water that has been pushed into the capacitor. Using electrical units,
Voltage[V =
J
C
] ∝ Charge[C]
The proportionality constant depends on the size of the tank and flexibility of the
membrane. Let’s give it a name and a unit
C [farad] = Q[C] V [V ]
or
Q = CV
To get to an I/V relationship, remember how charge relates to current:
t1
Q(t1 ) = ∫ I dt + Q(t0 )
t0
Which gives us the I/V relationship for the capacitor
Q(t ) 1
V (t ) =
= ∫ I dt + V (t0 )
C
C t0

Taking the derivative of both sides (using the fundamental theorem of calculus),
I (t ) = C

The RC circuit
Let the switch be closed for a long
time so that the capacitor is fully
charged and there is no current
flowing through the capacitor. At
t=0, open the switch. The
capacitor will now discharge
through the resistor.

Quiz 4.1
Q: A constant (“DC”) voltage is
placed across a capacitor on the left
and a time-varying (“AC”) voltage is
placed across the capacitor on the
right. Current will flow in which
cases?
A: No in the DC and no in the AC
B: Yes in the DC and no in the AC
C: No in the DC and yes in the AC
D: Yes in the DC and yes in the AC
E: It depends on the AC frequency.

Quiz 4.2
Q: At t=0, a switch is closed and the
uncharged capacitor C begins to
charge. How much charge is stored
in the capacitor at t=1 second?
RC = 1ms
A: 0 µC
One second is 1000x the RC time
B: 1 µC
constant, so the capacitor will be fully
charged, no current will be flowing
C: 10 µC
and thus the voltage across the
capacitor is 10V. By the definition of
D: 100 µC
capacitance, Q = C V.
E: I have no idea how to find this.

Q: A function generator is hooked to
the series RC circuit above. The peak
voltage across the capacitor depends
on
A: The peak voltage of the source
B: The frequency of the source
C: The order of R and C in series
D: A and B but not C •  The system is linear, so
the capacitor voltage is
proportional to the source
E: A and C but not B
voltage.

capacitor will drop when

A:
