Question: Electrical oscillations are initiated in a series circuit containing a capacitance C, inductance L, and resistance R. (a) If R < < 4L/C (weak damping),

Electrical oscillations are initiated in a series circuit containing a capacitance C, inductance L, and resistance R.
(a) If R << √4L/C (weak damping), how much time elapses before the amplitude of the current oscillation falls off to 50.0% of its initial value?
(b) How long does it take the energy to decrease to 50.0% of its initial value?
