8. 8 The time constant of a single-inductor circuit will be τ=L/R eq where R eq is the resistance seen by the inductor. Example: R eq =R 3 +R 4 +R 1 R 2 / (R 1 +R 2 )

9. The time constant of a single-capacitor circuit will be τ=R eq C where R eq is the resistance seen by the capacitor. Example: R eq =R 2 +R 1 R 3 / (R 1 +R 3 ) Copyright © 2013 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.9

10.  The voltage on a capacitor or the current through a inductor is the same prior to and after a switch at t=0.  Resistor voltage (or current) prior to the switch v(0 - ) can be different from the voltage after the switch v(0 + ).  All voltages and currents in an RC or RL circuit follow the same natural response e -t/τ.
