$A$ resistance $R$ and a capacitance $C$ are connected in series to a battery of negligible internal resistance through a key. The key is closed at $t = 0$. If after $t \, s$ the voltage across the capacitance is seven times the voltage across $R$,the value of $t$ is:

$A$ capacitor of capacitance $5\,\mu F$ is connected to a source of constant $emf$ of $200\,V$ for a long time. Then,the switch is shifted from contact $1$ to contact $2$. The total amount of heat generated in the $500\,\Omega$ resistance thereafter is: (in $/32\,J$)

$A$ capacitor of capacitance $C$ is being discharged through a resistor $R$. Let $t_1$ be the time taken for the energy stored in the capacitor to reduce to half of its initial value,and $t_2$ be the time taken for the charge to reduce to one-fourth of its initial value. Find the ratio $t_1/t_2$.
