In an RC circuit, the total resistance is 1 k ohm and the battery voltage is 3V. If the time constant is measured to be one micro second, calculate the capacitance.
A resistor and the capacitor are used to control the timing in the RC circuit of a heart pacemaker. To design a pacemaker that can double the heart rate when the patient is exercising, does the capacitor need to discharge faster or slower? So, for same capacitor, should the resistance be doubled, halved or stay the same? Explain.
List and explain some of the factors that could account for the percent error in the RC circuit experiment
