10.5 Exercise 11

Avg difficulty 2.5

If you wish to take a picture of a bullet traveling at 500 m/s, then a very brief flash of light produced by an RC discharge through a flash tube can limit blurring. Assuming 1.00 mm of motion during one RC constant is acceptable, and given that the flash is driven by a 600-μF600 - \mu \text{F} capacitor, what is the resistance in the flash tube?
