Solution

The monostable multivibrator is a one-shot timer circuit. The output pulse width (T) of a monostable multivibrator can be calculated using the formula:

T = 1.1 * R * C

Where: T is the time period, R is the resistance, and C is the capacitance.

Given that T = 10ms (or 0.01 seconds) and R = 1K Ohm (or 1000 Ohms), we can rearrange the formula to solve for C:

C = T / (1.1 * R)

Substituting the given values:

C = 0.01 / (1.1 * 1000)

C = 0.01 / 1100

C = 0.00000909 Farads

Since 1 Farad = 1,000,000 micro-Farads (uF), we convert C to micro-Farads:

C = 0.00000909 * 1,000,000

C = 9.09 uF

So, the value of the capacitance C is approximately 9.09 micro-Farads.
