Consider a circuit with a battery, resistor, a switch and a capacitor. Explore how can we describe mathematically the charge on the capacitor as a function of time as it charges or discharges through the resistor. Explore what role exponential functions play in modeling the charging and discharging process of a circuit. Explore the time constant of the circuit and what information it provides.
