Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Calculate the time constant for an RC circuit with R = 220 kΩ and C = 10 µF. How would you adjust R or C to double the time constant?

💡 Hint: Remember that τ = RC and doubling one affects the other too.

Question 2

Design an RC circuit that has a time delay of 15 seconds. Discuss the practical considerations when choosing R and C.

💡 Hint: Make sure to use reasonable standard component values to achieve desired time.
