Discharging. Discharging a capacitor through a resistor proceeds in a similar fashion, as illustrates. Initially, the current is I 0 =V 0 /R, driven by the initial voltage V 0 on the capacitor. As the voltage decreases, the current and hence the rate of discharge decreases, implying another exponential formula for V.
