Answer:

When the capacitor has acquired 14of its maximum charge then the current will be

Step by step solution

01

Relation between Resistance and capacitance

Resistance and capacitance are related in the manner that resistance affects directly the time taken to charge a capacitor. Or we can also say that as resistance increases the time taken to charge the capacitor also increases.

02

Calculating the current

We know that the current in the circuit when the capacitor is of the maximum, we can calculate the exponential term:

Q=Qmax4Q=Qmax(1-e-tRC-)e-tRC=34

We can finally calculate the current:

I=Imaxe-tRC=Imax34=VR脳34=10.0V12.0惟脳34=0.625A

Therefore the current is 0.625 A.
