1 Goal . To study the charging and discharging of capacitors. 2 Charging and Discharging Curve 2.1 Procedure 1. Using a voltmeter, a 1000 aF = 1mF capacitor, a 1k!? or 2 k!? resistor, a 6 V battery and a simple switch, connect the circuit as shown. 2. Once the capacitor is fully charged, flip the switch to the dis- R. charge circuit. 3. Using either your phone camera or a stopwatch, record the potential measured on the multi-meter every second until the potential difference reaches zero. 4. Record your measurement for time and Voltage in a table. 2.2 Analysis 1. Using Excel, plot the graph of V (y-axis) against time (r-axis). Ensure that the graph has: . A title . Labeled axes (with units) . An exponential trendline (make sure you can see the equation for the trendline) 2. If we can linearize an exponential function as shown below, what is the expression for Vo and T, as well as the uncertainly in each? Show your calculations in your lab report. V = Voe-1/T In V = -- + In Va 3. Using Excel, plot the graph of In V (y-axis) against time (r-axis). Ensure that the graph has: . A title. . Labelled axes (no units for y-axis) and time units for r-axis. . A linear trendline (make sure you can see the equation for the trendline). 4. If T = RCan, what is the effective capacitance of this circuit
