Determine the initial and final conditions on vC in Figure P5.23.


Analysis:

Before closing, the switch has been opened for a long time. Thus we have a steady-state condition, and we treat the capacitor as an open circuit. When the switch is open, the voltage source is not connected to the circuit. Thus,



After the switch has been closed for a long time, we have again a steady-state condition, and we treat the capacitor as an open circuit. The voltage across the capacitor is equal to the voltage across the resistance
