Solving eq(3)and eq.(4) simultaneously gives:

Hence eq.(2) becomes:
v c
(t) = 5 − 10.362e
−862.467t
−24669.447t
Now,

v c
(0.5m) = − 1.732V

v c
(2m) = 3.154V
2. For R = 47 Ω:
R = 47 Ω, C = 1 μ, L = 47m
Now, initial condition is:
v c
The characteristic equation is:

Now, first calculating neper’s frequency:
α =
2 × 47m
= 500rad/sec
Now, Resonant frequency is:
ω o
47m × 1 μ
= 4612.656rad/sec
From the above calculations we can see that the response of the circuit is underdamped i.e. ω o

Roots are real and not equal hence the response is underdamped.
In order to calculate B1 and B2 we use initial conditions:
