This physics video tutorial explains how to solve RC circuit problems with capacitors and resistors. It explains how to calculate the time constant using the resistance and capacitance values. It also shows you how to calculate the time it takes for the capacitor to charge to a certain level and how many time constants that value correspond to using natural logs. This tutorial provides the equation / formula of when a capacitor is charging and when it's discharging with a respect to time. This video contains plenty of examples and practice problems.
