For the circuit shown,

  • R1 = 12 Ω
  • R2 = 15 Ω
  • R3 = 33 Ω
  • C = 15 μF

In the RC circuit, the source voltage has been at an initial voltage of Vi = 7 V for a long time. At t = 0, the source voltage abruptly jumps to Vf = 27 V.

Determine the expression for the capacitor voltage as a function of time, for t > 0.
