Each of the two networks that follows has a non-zero initial state at t=0 (this is indicated for separately for each network). Find the network states for t > 0.
(Hint: what equivalent resistance is in parallel with each capacitor, and what time constant results from this combination?)
If v_a(0) = V, what is v_a(t) for t > 0? Enter your answer as a Python expression involving V, R_1, R_2, and/or C.
You may use exp(x) or e**(x) to represent e^x, and you may use ln(x) to represent the natural log of x.
For t\geq 0, v_a(t) =~
If v_b(0) = V, what is v_b(t) for t > 0? Enter your answer as a Python expression involving V, R_1, R_2, and/or C.
You may use exp(x) or e**(x) to represent e^x, and you may use ln(x) to represent the natural log of x.
For t\geq 0, v_b(t) =~
