question 2.5

- Relevant Equations
- Time constant = resistance * capatiance
I assumed that i had to take 5 time constants which would give the time taken to charge fully i assume then divide by 10 giving me a total number of readings of 34 ,
the answer is 6
yet they only used a single time constant to determine the number of readings? as this give me an answer of 68 or 6.8 readings therefore 6
