1- A diode is used to rectify an ac voltage from a transformer and charge a 1uF capacitor. Estimate how long it will take the capacitor to discharge from 3 volts to 1.5 volts (once ac voltage is turned off)

a) with no load

b) with a scope probe across the capacitor. (note: never is not the correct answer)

2- Repeat problem 1 but use the largest value 3 volt super capacitor available from digikey.com.
