Connect the initial circuit as shown in Figure 47-1.
2. Set VA at 20 volts. Insert a jumper wire between points A and B and observe the meter action.
OBSERVATION Current flowed for approximately ___________ seconds as evidenced by the voltage
measured across R. The rate of charge was (linear, nonlinear) __________________.
nCONCLUSION The current that flowed was the charging current that charged the capacitor to a
voltage equal to (VR, VA) ____________________. Was charging current maximum at
the beginning of the charge time or near the end? _________. At the beginning of the
charge time, the voltage across R was equal to (VC , VA) _______________________
(the first instant). At the end of the charge time, the voltage across the resistor is
________ volts; the voltage across the capacitor is equal to VA.
