RC Circuits, Charging, Discharging, Capacitors in Series and Parallel - Physics

The physics of a resistor capacitor (RC) circuit is explained and how it works using the circuit diagram, analysis of the differential equations and solution curves (charge, current, voltage, energy) , time constant formula, including what rc is and if it is the same as a DC circuit. You will understand what a capacitor acts like during charging and difference between capacitance rules in series and parallel connections.
