-  * The wire has very very small resistance when compared to the other resistors in the circuit: This allows there to be no energy loss across the wires and no potential difference across them either simplifying down the model.+  * The wire has very very small resistance when compared to the other resistors in the circuit: This allows there to be no energy loss across the wires and no potential difference across them either, simplifying down the model.
   * The resistors in the circuit are made of Ohmic materials: Ohmic materials have a linear relationship between voltage and current, this allows us to use ohms law.   * The resistors in the circuit are made of Ohmic materials: Ohmic materials have a linear relationship between voltage and current, this allows us to use ohms law.
   * Practically speaking, the capacitors becomes "fully charged" (with respect to the potential differences in the circuit) at some finite time: Making this assumption means we are dealing with perfect capacitors that will not lose charge and will reach a peak charge in a finite time.   * Practically speaking, the capacitors becomes "fully charged" (with respect to the potential differences in the circuit) at some finite time: Making this assumption means we are dealing with perfect capacitors that will not lose charge and will reach a peak charge in a finite time.
