Is the following statement true or false? the time constant of an rc circuit is the time it takes to completely charge or discharge the capacitor. o true false

FALSE

Explanation:

As we know that equation for charging of a capacitor is given by

now at t = 0 we can say there is no charge on the capacitor

now as the time will increase the value of charge will increase on the plates of capacitor

now after t = 1 time constant

we will have

so after one time constant the capacitor will charged upto 63% of its maximum value.

this a false

explanation:

overcharge is the right answer system
