Now MATH

To solve this, we need to work in voltages, not current.

We start with MATH.

The voltage across a capacitor is given by MATH.

It follows that $C\dfrac{dv}{dt}=i$.

So for this example we have:

MATH

Substituting known values:

MATH

Then

MATH

Taking Laplace:MATH

Since $v_{0}=0$, we have:

MATH


MATH

So, taking inverse Laplace

MATH

NOTE: For the part: MATH, we use:

MATH

So we have:

MATH


MATH


Solution Using Scientific Notebook

1. To find the Inverse Laplace:

MATH

 

2. To solve the original DE:

MATH

Exact solution for v(t):

MATH

To see what this means, we could write it as follows:

MATH


To see what our expression for v(t) means, we graph it as follows:
