This document contains voltage (V) and time (t) data from a series RC circuit simulation. It lists the voltage values for t from 0 to 1.2 seconds in increments of 1x10^-4 seconds. The voltage starts at 0 V and increases exponentially until reaching an asymptotic maximum of around 11.9 V. The data shows the characteristic exponential charging behavior of an RC circuit.

6. Voltage, (Volts)
Consider the following situation and discuss your answers to the
questions below:
Cary breaks into a residential home at midnight with the intent
on stealing a television for drug money. Cary breaks a back
window with a crowbar, walks through the kitchen and into
the living room. To Cary's surprise, there is an old man sitting
on the couch watching ESPN. The old man looks at Cary, still
holding the crowbar, jumps to his feet and tries to attack Cary
to defend his home. During the confrontation, the old man
collapses on the floor. Cary calls 9-1-1, but the old man is
pronounced dead on the scene due to a heart attack. Cary is
arrested.
By using Module One's resources (Power Point Presentations
and North Carolina General Statute Website), what criminal
charge would you charge Cary with? Explain how you came to
that conclusion.
Remember Cary from Discussion Board 1? Well, he was
charged and convicted with 1st Degree Burglary and 1st Degree
Murder. His offense was classified as a Class A felony, and the
DA is now seeking the death penalty. The DA is working on
getting the victim's family to prepare victim impact statements
for the sentencing.
Just to recap, why was the DA able to justify charging Cary
with 1st Degree Murder, even though he called 9-1-1 after the
victim collapsed?
Based on what the DA is seeking for a punishment, what
correctional philosophy(ies) (or purposes) do you believe that

7. sentence would fall under? Please justify your answer.
We will discuss in class how to analyze the charging and
discharging of an RC series circuit. Figure 1 demonstrates the
original circuit (a), the charging circuit (b) and the discharging
circuit (c), the third drawing should be (c).
1) Assume V = 15V, R = 4.7k and C = 1.5uF, find the
following,
a) Tau = ?_________ 5 x tau = ?_________
b) If at t = 0 seconds the switch is moved to position A, create a
plot of the response of this circuit for five time constants (5 x
tau). Place the plot here,
c) What is the terminal voltage on the capacitor (from Excel)?
2) Assume at five time constants the switched is move from
position A to B.
a) If the switch remains closed for another 5 time constants
show the plot with both charging and discharging waveforms
(10 time constants). Place that plot here,
b) What is the terminal voltage on the capacitor (from Excel)?
Format the plots to show any pertinent information (plot title,
axis titles, voltage at tau).

8. The final plot should look something like the following, except
the values will be different.
