Capacitor...the capacitor has an initial charge, q0 = 30 μC, what is the value of the capacitance, C?

Capacitor...the capacitor has an initial charge, q0 = 30 μC, what is the value of the capacitance, C?

A capacitor carrying charge q0 with capacitance C, and a solenoid with inductance L are connected as shown in Figure 1. At time t = 0 the switch is

closed. At time t the charge on the capacitor is q(t) and the current through the circuit is i(t).

1)If the solenoid has inductance L = 1.00 H, and the energy in the oscillations is E0 = 4.5 μJ, what is the maximum value, i0, of the current through the circuit?

2)Given that the capacitor has an initial charge, q0 = 30 μC, what is the value of the capacitance, C ?

3)What is the frequency, f, of the oscillations?

    you have a bunch of questions mixed together and no drawings.

    A) "the capacitor has an initial charge, q0 = 30 μC, what is the value of the capacitance, C?"

    Need more information, such as voltage.

    B)"A capacitor carrying charge q0 with capacitance C, and a solenoid with inductance L are connected as shown in Figure 1. At time t = 0 the switch is closed. At time t the charge on the capacitor is q(t) and the current through the circuit is i(t)."

    need figure 1, and a question. There is no question.

    1) "If the solenoid has inductance L = 1.00 H, and the energy in the oscillations is E0 = 4.5 μJ, what is the maximum value, i0, of the current through the circuit?"

    what is the circuit?

    2) "What is the frequency, f, of the oscillations?"

    need a lot more information for this.
