Question
We calculated the capacticance of our capacitior in farads and we have to compare it to the listed capacitance of the capacitor as shown in the picture. When we do percent difference we get 200%... where did I mess up? That can't be right. The resistance of our resistor is 12970 ohms. Please explain this like you were talking to a child.

  • Construct a RC circuit (series) with a capacitor, a resistor, a battery,

    Part A Charging of RC Circuit 1) Construct a RC circuit (series) with a capacitor, a resistor, a battery, two switches, and appropriate meters that will enable you to make measurements of the parameters for charging up the capacitor. The placement of the switches allows you to measure both charging and discharging of the RC circuit. See diagram below: 2) Choose a combination of Rand C that will give you a time constant(T) of 20 seconds. T=R*C 20= 100* C=0.2F 3) Set the...
