Question:

A charging RC circuit controls the intermittent windshield wipers in a car. The emf is 12.0 V. The wipers are triggered when the voltage across the 125-μ F capacitor reaches 10.0 V; then the capacitor is quickly discharged (through a much smaller resistor) and the cycle repeats.
What resistance should be used in the charging circuit if the wipers are to operate once every 1.80 s?
