Capacitor Lab: Basics - Parallel Plate Capacitor | Capacitance | RC Circuit - PhET Interactive Simulations (colorado.edu) Capacitor Lab Basics. Open the simulation, and click on the Capacitance box. We need to set up the capacitor-battery circuit, do calculations, and verify them according to the simulation's data. Start by checking all the boxes above the circuit, and those to the upper-right. Notice the switch directly above the capacitor, grab it and pivot it to the off position (which rotates it straight up). Now grab the battery slider, and move it fully upwards to 1.5 V. There will be no charge on the capacitor plates. Close the switch by pivoting to the left. Immediately the plates have opposite charges, and field lines are shown (out from +, and in towards -. Meaning vertical arrows pointing down. Next grab the meter, place it as is shown, and put its red probe on the + plate, and black probe on the - plate. It indicates 1.500 V, as it should. Note red wires go to + and black to - charges or terminals (such as a car battery). Doing the above steps leaves you as is shown in the figure. The lecture gave us parallel plate capacitor equations, and prefixes as well. Let's list them: V=Ed Q=CV C=E. A/d c. = 8.85E-12 PE = X QV = > CV? = %Q? /C E. = 8.85E-12 milli or m = 1E-3, micro or u = 1E-6, nano or n = 1E-9 and pico or p - 1E-12 C. Capacitor charged by a Battery. 1. Calculate the capacitance based on physical dimensions: C= E. A / d e. = 8.85E-12 The area is given in "mm?", convert this to A = m . d= _m. C= F (scientific) = PF. (3 significant figures for C) 2. Calculate the top plate charge, Q =_ C (scientific) = PC. (3 significant figures for Q) 3. Calculate the field: use V = Ed, E= V/m. 4. Calculate the energy: PE = = J (scientific) = PJ. (3 significant figures for PE)
