Hello Bart.
The equation for the second curve of the graph (recharging) in Question 3 of
HW4 does NOT meet with the first curve, which would mean that there is a
"sudden" change in the voltage in the capacitor, which is not possible.
Could you please double check it?
The equation I wrote in the HW was as follows (For the second curve).

Vc(t)=5-3.297exp(-t/2ns) t>=1ns

Hello Camilo,

You are correct, I have emailed the fix to the readers. The correct
mathematical way of writing it:

Vc = 5 - 2*exp(-(t-1ns)/2ns), t>= 1ns
