Voltage Measurement To measure the potential difference or voltage across an element we connect the two voltage leads to the ends of the element.

Voltage Measurement What is the effect of connecting a voltmeter (DMM) to an element? This is the resistance of the voltmeter (DMM). This resistance is more like 10 MW If 10 MW and 1 k. W

Voltage Measurement What about measuring the voltage of a old battery?

Current Measurement To measure the current through an element we break the circuit and place the current meter (DMM) in the circuit so that current flows through the meter.

Ideal Ammeter n Ideal Ammeter V Rs Rs = 0 for an ideal ammeter

Charging a Capacitor Kirchhoff’s Rules

Discharging a Capacitors n Write Kirchhoff’s voltage equation for discharging a capacitor. n The charge on the capacitor decrease while the charge through the resistor increases. n Integrate the equation

Discharging a Capacitor n Write the equation for current and voltage for a discharging capacitor. n Use the definition of capacitance and the charge equation to find the equation for the voltage across the capacitor.

Charging a Capacitor n Are the graphs for a charging capacitor the same? Discuss this. n Discuss these equations in your group and make sure you all understand can explain these equations in terms of the characteristic of the capacitor.

Charging a Capacitor n Now lets see a charging capacitor. For times less than one time constant For times greater than a few time constant
