Thought Experiment: Explain what is physically happening to the charge in the RC circuit during charging and discharging cycles (i.e. Why does the capacitor charge/discharge quickly at first but slow...
PLEASE ANSWER VERY QUICKLY!! I RATE HIGH!! The experiment is on RC circuits and the aim is to determine the time constant. Your group sets up the circuit with a resistor R and a capacitor C connected to a switch and an ideal battery (E). The circuit diagram is shown in the figure. You close the switch at time Os and the voltage across the capacitor Ve and current I in the ammeter are recorded in a spreadsheet using a...
Experiment 7 - The Resistor Capacitor Circuit Learning Objectives: Understand the short and long time behavior of circuits containing capacitors. Understand the and the mathematical relationshin between the current through the circuit as a function time, resistance, capacitance, and potential difference 1. Understanding the models for the behavior of a capacitor in a circuit A capacitor is a device that stores energy in a circuit as potential energy in an electric field. In the simple circuit drawn on the night,...
