Correct Answer: 1.5
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Determine the voltage across the capacitor $C$ at $t = 0.5 s$.
$V_M(0.5) = 5\sin(\pi \times 0.5 / 3) = 2.5 V$. $V_c(0.5^-) = 2.5 V$, and due to continuity, $V_c(0.5^+) = 2.5 V$.
Step 2: Determine the equivalent capacitance after the switch opens.
$C_{eq} = C + C_{ADC} = 0.1 \mu F + 0.1 \mu F = 0.2 \mu F$.
Step 3: Determine the discharge time constant.
$\tau = R_{ADC} C_{eq} = (10 \times 10^6) \times (0.2 \times 10^{-6}) = 2 s$.
Step 4: Write the voltage across the equivalent capacitance as a function of time for $t \ge 0.5 s$.
$V_x(t) = V_x(0.5) e^{-(t - 0.5) / \tau} = 2.5 e^{-(t - 0.5) / 2}$.
Step 5: Calculate $V_x$ at $t = 1.5 s$.
$V_x(1.5) = 2.5 e^{-(1.5 - 0.5) / 2} = 2.5 e^{-1 / 2} = 2.5 e^{-0.5} \approx 2.5 \times 0.6065 = 1.51625 V$.
Step 6: Round off to two decimal places.
$V_x(1.5) \approx 1.52 V$.
