How much time does it take a fully charged 500 microfarad capacitor, connected in series with a 20K ohm resistor across a 15v supply, to discharge its current to 0.5 milliamps? I have tried to solve this problem for quite a few days and have come to realize there is basic principle operation of capacitors in dc circuits which I am simply not getting. So far my best effort answer is 18.97 sec. Is this correct?
