Discharging Capacitors 1. Introduction In this experiment you will measure the rates at which capacitors in series with resistors can be charged and discharged. The time constant RC will be found. Charging a capacitor. Consider the series circuit shown in Fig. 1. Let us assume that the capacitor is initially uncharged. When the switch S is open there is of course no current. If the switch is closed at t=0‚ charges begin to flow and an ammeter will be able to measure a current. The charges

The Effect of Metal Ions on Lichens Casey Stinnett ESC 1510 October 30‚ 2014 Introduction Lichens are a sybiotic association of fungus (mycobiont) and algae (Pediastrum boryanum . The fungus engulfs the algae‚ then supplies carbs‚ nitrogen‚ and vitamins while the algae photosynthesizes. This unusual relationship enables the lichen to grow in environments where neither fungus nor algae would normally be able to solely survive. They are found on every continent‚ ranging all the way from

Boys’ Code of Conduct In the article “How Boys Become Men”‚ written by John Katz‚ he analyzes situations he experienced while growing up. Katz believes that boys become men by not showing fear or feelings and not ratting on others. As in the novel‚ The Other Wes Moore‚ both Weses are forced to become men at an early age. They experience events that push them to make decisions that make them grow and think like men do. Katz details the maturation process for boys‚ as the book‚ The Other Wes Moore

Aim: To design a simple electrical circuit for Doctor’s Surgery to let people know when to enter and also to research and learn more about parallel and series circuits. Introduction I am going to design an electric circuit for a Doctor’s surgery. There are two types of circuit’s Parallel circuit‚ and Series circuit. First I am going to explain what a circuit is and what the differences they have are. An electric current is a flow of charge. The charges are given energy and made of flow using

Transistor (JFET) is a three terminal device that consists of drain‚ source‚ and gate. The JFET is a voltage-controlled‚ constant-current device and a unipolar device. For this experiment‚ we used the JFET Self-bias circuit which in particular we use the n-channel. This kind of circuit is simple yet effective and is the most common biasing method for JFETs. The important thing to know is that the gate is essentially at 0V. When VDD increases‚ VDS also increases. Hence‚ the drain current‚ ID also will

the rate of fermentation. Abstract: We have tested the affects of increased temperature above room temperature on the rate of fermentation of yeast. We had 6 flasks filled with 6mL DI water‚ 2mL Yeast suspension and 6mL glucose of which 3 were at 25°C and 3 were at 37°C. The flasks at 37°C had each mixture pre-heated at 37°C for 2 minutes before being combined and then added to the flask where it was put into the bath heated to 37°C. We then checked CO2 levels in each flask every 2 minutes for

Objective: The objective of the lab is to separate the caffeine samples we are using‚ using thin layer chromatography. The solvent we are using for the separation is 3:1 mixture of Chloroform and Acetone. Principle: Thin layer chromatography (TLC) is an important technique that is useful for separating organic compounds. TLC is often used to monitor the progress of organic reactions and to check the purity of products. Separations in Thin layer chromatography involve distributing a mixture of

Engineering Laboratory (Lab) Report Department of Engineering Faculty of Engineering and Science‚ University Tunku Abdul Rahman (UTAR) 1. Introduction Laboratory (Lab) reports are the most frequent document written by engineering student. These reports can contribute a significant amount of marks and yet little time or attention is devoted in understanding on how to write them well. The aim of this document is to provide a general guideline on writing a lab report. A lab report should not be
