Chapter 18, Problem 20ICA
Create a proper plot of the theoretical voltage decay of a resistor-capacitor circuit:
You may assume that you have a capacitance (C) of 500 microfarads μF, a resistance (R) of 0.5 ohms [Ω], and an initial voltage (V0) of 10 volts [V]. The plot should start at time 0 seconds and increase by intervals of + microsecond to 600 microseconds.

The flow of liquid from a tank in a manufacturing system has been modeled using the
following equation:
q(t)=ke(t)√h(t)
where: q(t) is the rate of liquid flow out of the tank [m³/s]
(1) is the position of a valve at the outlet of the tank [% open]
h(t) is the height of liquid in the tank [m]
k is a constant
Obtain a linearized equation describing the flow rate q(t) as an approximate function of
change in valve position 8(t) away from a nominal valve position 8, and change in liquid
height h(t) away from a nominal liquid height ho.
