Time Constant. (a) When current is first turned into a circuit of considerable self-induction it is resisted rather by the inductance than by the resistance. It is governed by the ratio of resistance and self-induction and this factor represents the time which it takes for the current to reach a definite fraction of its final strength. This fraction is (2.7183 - 1)/2.7183
or 0.63. 2.7183 is the base of the Napierian system of logarithms. Thus if in any circuit we divide the inductance in henries by the resistance in ohms, the ratio gives the time-constant of the circuit, or it expresses the time which it will take for the current to reach 0.63 of its final value.
(b) In a static condenser the time required for the charge to fall to
