Question

Start the simulation. When you click the simulation link, you may be asked whether to run, open, or save the file. Choose to run or open it.

Two tools you will use often in this tutorial are the Voltage Chart and the Current Chart tools. For the Current Chart, you simply place the transparent cross-hairs over the wire in the circuit and the chart will begin showing the current as a function of time. The Voltage Chart acts in a similar way to the voltmeter, giving you the voltage difference between the red and black leads as a function of time.

The amount of time ________ if the resistance is increased and ________ if the capacitance is increased.

The amount of time ________ if the resistance is increased and ________ if the capacitance is increased.

increases / increases decreases / increases increases / decreases decreases / decreases To understand the time-dependent behavior of the current in circuits containing batteries, capacitors, and resistors. For this tutorial, use the PhET simulation Circuit Construction Kit (AC+DC). This simulation allows you to build circuits using wire, resistors, batteries, and other circuit components. The voltage across any two locations on the circuit can be measured using a voltmeter, and the current can be measured using an ammeter.
