A circuit contains a resistor in series with a capacitor, the series combination being connected across the terminals of a battery, as in the figure below. The time constant for charging the capacitor is 2.6 s when the resistor has a resistance of 1.9 multiply.gif 104 ?. What would the time constant be if the resistance had a value of 5.1 multiply.gif 104 ?
