Charge at steady steady state ${{\rm{q}}_0} = 20\mu {\rm{C}}$

${\rm{q}} = {{\rm{q}}_0}\left( {1 - {{\rm{e}}^{{\rm{t/}}\tau }}} \right)$

${\rm{q}} = 12.6 = 20\left( {1 - {{\rm{e}}^{ - 50 \times {{10}^{ - 3{\rm{/}}\tau }}}}} \right)$

and $\tau  = RC = 50 \times {10^{ - 3}} \Rightarrow R = 5\,{\rm{K}}\Omega $
