For the RC circuit, the switch has been open for a long time and closes at t = 0. Prior to the switch closing, the capacitor was charged to a voltage of Vi = -13 V.
Determine the expression for the capacitor voltage as a function of time, for t > 0.
Calculate the capacitor voltage and capacitor current at t = 4.2 μs.
