Part 1: Charging a Capacitor Equipment: Power supply One large capacitor (about 2500µF), Resistance box Multimeter 4 banana cables Stopwatch When a capacitor is charged through a resistor by a constant voltage source, the voltages across the capacitor and resistor change exponentially with time. That is, Where V is the applied voltage. Likewise, when a …
