    Write the equation for the voltage across the capacitor as a function of time after the switch closes
    What is the definition of Q relating inductance, resistance and frequency?

    That's a good homework question.
    What have you found so far?

    You will need to show your attempt first. Then, members will help you by pointing out any errors in your attempt, and give you some guidance in putting you on the right track. This forum does not simply do your homework for you.

    v/s=i(s)(R+SL+1/SL)
    I(S)=V/(SR+S^2+1/C)
    I(S)=V/L *(1/S^2+R/L*S+1/LC)
    SO WHAT IS THE I(T)

    I'm actually interested in knowing the answer myself, ha, so you had better figure it out!

    Anyways, as a hint, I'm pretty sure the output over time will be a sine wave, but other than that I can't really tell :)

    Check your units!!

    Very first line: (R+SL+1/SL) You KNOW that sL and 1/(sL) are not going to have the same units -- unless sL happened to be dimensionless. But if it is, then you know that you can't add it to R.

    So you KNOW this equation is WRONG. No point going any further until you fix it.
