Radiotherapy devices often utilize linear particle accelerators that require a high voltage pulse. A Marx generator is a circuit that allows the input voltage to be multiplied and delivered to a load i a short period of time. In the circuit shown in the figure, a fixed voltage source is applied between points a and b, and the capacitors are charged in parallel with all four switches open. (a) What is the final charge (in mC) on each of the capacitors when the voltage source is applied across points a and b and all four 5 witches are open? Q1 = mc Q2 = mc Q3 = mc (b) How long does it take for each of the capacitors to reach 99.0% of their maximum charge? t1 = ms t2 = ms t3 = ms (d) What is the initial voltage (in V) across points c and d immediately after all four switches are closed? (e) What is the time interval (in ms) required for the current in the circuit to reach 20.0% of its initial value after all four switches are closed? ms

Two capacitors of equal capacitance C are connected as shown. Initially the switch S is open, and the left capacitor is charged with charge Q, while the other capacitor is uncharged. At time t = 0 the switch is closed. (a) (7 Pts.) Find the charge on the left capacitor after charge equilibrium is reached. (b) (7 Pts.) How much energy is lost when the capacitors are connected? Now, a material with dielectric constant K is inserted to completely fill the left capacitor. The two capacitors remain connected while the material is filled. (c) (8 Pts.) What is the final charge Q′ on the left capacitor? (d) (8 Pts.) What is the total final energy stored in both capacitors?
