6 FAQs about [Battery and capacitor experiment]

How do you charge and discharge a capacitor?

This document describes an experiment on charging and discharging of capacitors. It involves using a 100μF capacitor, 1MΩ resistor, 9V battery, and multimeter. The procedure is to connect these components in a circuit and take voltage readings across the capacitor at 20 second intervals as it charges.

What do you learn in a capacitor lab?

In this part of the lab you will be given 3 di erent capacitors, jumping wires, a breadboard, a multimeter and a capacimeter. You will investigate how capacitors behave in series and parallel and how voltages are distributed in capacitor circuits. With the given materials, complete the following tasks:

What happens when a capacitor is charged?

During charging, an electric field is created which in turn result into electrostatic charges being created. As a result, the charges stored in the capacitor grows exponentially. The reverse process happens during the discharging of the capacitor. Two or Half-life (experimental), t❑ 12 (exp) (s) Run #1 10 k Ω 330 μF 9 8 4.

How does a capacitor work?

In the experiment, our capacitor is similar to an aluminum electrolytic capacitor, except instead of using borax paste for the dielectric, we used a sheet of wax paper. Our capacitor uses the two aluminum foil squares to store positive and negative charges. The charge on the capacitor is proportional to the voltage across the capacitor.

Do I need a large-value capacitor to do this experiment?

To do this experiment, you will need the following: Large-value capacitors are required for this experiment to produce time constants slow enough to track with a voltmeter and stopwatch. CAUTION: Be warned that most large capacitors are of the electrolytic type, and they are polarity sensitive!

What happens when a battery is connected to a capacitor?

When the battery is first connected, free electrons inside the top capacitor plate will move toward the positive terminal of the battery. This continues until the top capacitor plate is at the same potential as the positive terminal of the battery. A net positive charge, +Q, will then be on the top capacitor plate.
