There are 2 capacitors: C1 = 0.22F and C2 = 0.47F with the given data as the below table:

C1 = 0.22F capacitor

C2 = 0.47F capacitor

Time to Fully Charge

36.65 seconds

64.72 seconds               

Time to Fully Discharge

65.47 seconds

178.41 seconds

Initial Maximum Current

97.5 mA

194.5 mA

Being as clear and specific as possible, explain why:

1. The charging times differ for the two capacitors.

2. The discharge time is not the same as the charging time for each capacitor.

3. The maximum current readings differ for the two capacitors.
