title: RC, RL circuit aka: square wave into RLC circuit, ringing |
Description: A Pasco signal generator produces a square wave (about 5 hz) into an RLC circuit on a board. Using DataStudio, the input waveform is compared to the waveform found over the capacitor and resistor. A large coil is used for the inductor. Questions: How does the wave form observed change with the following modifications? A. The capacitor is increased. B. The inductance is changed (increased or decreased?) by inserting a piece of iron into the coil. C. The time period of the square wave is decreased. |
