RC Circuits Physics Problems, Time Constant Explained, Capacitor Charging and Discharging

This physics video tutorial explains how to solve RC circuit problems with capacitors and resistors. It explains how to calculate the time constant using the resistance and capacitance values. It also shows you how to calculate the time it takes for the capacitor to charge to a certain level and how many time constants that value correspond to using natural logs. This tutorial provides the equation / formula of when a capacitor is charging and when it's discharging with a respect to time. This video contains plenty of examples and practice problems.

    Your comment is so funny that your professor that has a doctorate is a scientist, not a teacher. The university hired him to do research, and if he is a good teacher than that's just a bonus. Students don't seem to know this. People just look to blame other people or circumstances for there failures. Suck it up and do something different to learn the material. Its annoying hearing all the excuses my classmates come up with.

    @@TiberiusStorm Do you know why? Because physics professors are physicists. They assume you want to be a scientist or engineer. So some feel the responsibility to be gatekeepers. They will see if you really have the work ethic to make it. This is especially tough for students who skipped physics in high school. Long story short, I did skip physics in high school for personal reasons but I am now a physics major in my junior year. You want something bad enough you go get it. It is your priority above anything else; sex, video games, and etc. Sometimes you need to sacrifice time with your family.

    True enough! I'm sacrificing a lot to be in college but sometimes the concepts and/or calculations just elude me and I get discouraged. I also missed Physics in high school so I'm doing double duty trying to understand and learn the basics.

    I wish this had been around back in the day when I was in school… and I do mean BACK in the day. Way back when the internet was shared only between research organizations and government agencies, and before the first website went live, I conned my way through the stand-in-line-to-get-a-stamp-on-your-sheet college registration process to get into a couple of courses without having the prerequisites (which I probably could not have done quite so easily in the time of modern electronic records) and had to work hard to keep up, using old textbooks to cover gaps in knowledge. Turns out that is pretty hard to do! As it is, in my fifties, still stubborn, and still taking on new challenges, I am truly humbled and grateful that someone would go to the effort to share their gift for teaching and put out content like this.
