A capacitor is filled with dielectric of permittivity, , loses half the charge acquired during a time interval, . Assuming the charge to leak only through the dielectric filler, calculate its resistivity (permittivity of vacuum, ).

A circuit consists of a source of a constant emf and a resistance and a capacitor with capacitance connected in series. The internal resistance of the source is negligible. At a moment , the capacitance of the capacitor is abruptly decreased -fold. Find the current flowing through the circuit as a function of time .

An ammeter and a voltmeter are connected in series to a battery with an emf . When a certain resistance is connected in parallel with the voltmeter, the readings of the latter decrease times, whereas the readings of the ammeter increase the same number of times. Find the voltmeter readings after the connection of the resistance.



Two sources of the current of equal emf are connected in series and have different internal resistances and . Find the external resistance at which the potential difference across the terminals of one of the sources (which one in particular?) becomes equal to zero.
