Time Constant τ "Tau" Formulas for RC, RL & RLC Circuits
Time Constant τ "Tau" Formulas for RC, RL & RLC Circuits
RL Circuit Time Constant | Universal Time Constant Curve
The voltage across the capacitor will rise to 0.6321, or 63.21 % of the supply voltage in RC seconds, the value of 1 on the time constant curve. By plotting V C for different time constants, we obtain the universal curve A of figure 2.

How To Find The Time Constant in RC and RL Circuits
How To Calculate and Use RC Time Constants
In Electrical Engineering, the time constant of a resistor-capacitor network (i.e., RC Time Constant) is a measure of how much time it takes to charge or discharge the capacitor in the RC network. Denoted by the symbol tau (τ), the RC time constant is specifically defined as the amount of time it takes an RC circuit to reach approximately …

Time Constant of a circuit
When I charge the circuit as shown where the switch is at A, the p.d. across C1 is 10V, which is correct. When I discharge the circuit, however, by changing the switch S from A to B, the total the total capacitance of the circuit is 200μF as C1 and C2 are in parallel.
Time constant of $RC$ circuit with more than one capacitor
If you take one capacitor away, the time constant is simply halved. That means the time for the current (or voltage) to decay to 1/e ≈ 36.8% of the initial value …

I have read about Series RC Circuit and have understood the Time constant concept. Wikipedia states - "It is the time required to charge the capacitor, through the resistor, from an initial charge voltage of zero to approximately 63.2% of the value of an applied DC voltage, or to discharge the capacitor through the same resistor …

RC Circuit Time Constant
What is Time Constant in RC Circuit? The time required to charge a capacitor to about 63 percent of the maximum voltage is called the time constant of the RC circuit. When a discharged capacitor is suddenly connected across a DC supply, such as E s in figure 1 (a), a current immediately begins to flow. At time t 1 (Figure 1 (b)), the moment the ...

I need to find the step response and the time constant of the given RC circuit: : Can anybody please share the method to solve this circuit? Also, if R1=R2=R and C1=C2=C; then is the step response a step …
capacitor
The time constant in the solution is 0.5. (-2t implies tau = 0.5) I am wondering how they got this. tau = RC So I am wondering how to calculate the Rth. The capacitor is inbetween the two resistors in series, so would the Rth be Rth = 6/(6+2) But then tau = (6/8)*(1/
