Discharging a Capacitor

pending
A capacitor of capacitance \(C\) is charged until its plates contain charge \(\pm Q_0\). It is then hooked up in a circuit to a resistor of resistance \(R\) and allowed to discharge starting at time \(t=0\). Find the charge on the capacitor as a function of time, \(Q(t)\).
