AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of a capacitor discharging through a resistor, we can use the formula for the voltage across a discharging capacitor: \[ V(t) = V_0 e^{-\frac{t}{RC}} \] where: - \( V(t) \) is the voltage across the capacitor at time \( t \), - \( V_0 \) is the initial voltage (10 V in this case), - \( R \) is the resistance, ...
