tau

what does tau equal in this situation?:

R1=1KΩ

C1=1mF=1000uF

reminder:

$\tau = RC \Rightarrow R * C$

$\tau = Seconds$

$\begin{array}{rcll} \tau & = & R \cdot C\\\\ R &=& 1\ k\Omega \\ &=& 1000\ \Omega\\\\ C &=& 1\ mF \\ &=& 0.001\ F \\\\ \tau & = & 1000\ \Omega \cdot 0.001\ F \\ & = & 1000\cdot 0.001\ \Omega \ F \\ & = & 1\ \Omega \ F \quad &| \quad 1\ \Omega = 1\ \frac{V}{A} \qquad 1\ F = 1\ \frac{A\cdot s}{V} \\ \tau & = & 1\ \cdot \frac{V}{A} \cdot \frac{A\cdot s}{V} \\ \mathbf{\tau} & \mathbf{=} & \mathbf{1\ s} \end{array}$

very, VERY good job!
