Question

4. If the 100 Q resistor were connected in parallel to the capacitor instead of in series, it is possible that the ammeter might be ruined. Explain. 5. What would the decay constant be if a 12 resistor had been used instead of a 100 e resistor? Explain any difficulties you might encounter in collecting data for this case. 6. What would be the maximum current in the circuit if the 100 2 resistor were replaced by a 10,000 N resistor? 7. In the equation = RC, substitute the appropriate electrical units for R and C, and show that the product RC will have units of seconds.

Explanation / Answer

4) Yes, because arranging the capacitor in parallel can cause an overload in the ammeter.

5) It would decrease by a power of 2 (10^2). The might be a difficulty in reading the data because a 1 ohm resistor does not have a wide ranging resistance to be measured.

6) 10V

7) (change of V/I)* (charge of column/ diff. in V)
