Electronics Workbench Circuit File Version: 5 Charset: ANSI Description: "Problem C 03 - Two capacitors in parallel" "" "1. Get voltmeter V1. Drag and drop it between the two nodes on the top and bottom wire, to the right of capacitor C1. Wire it to the top and bottom node. Drop voltmeter V2 about 5 cm to the right of capacitor C2. Wire it to the top and bottom of C2." "" "2. Make sure the switch at the top of the circuit is OPEN. If it is not, press the space bar. The space bar toggles this switch on and off." "" "3. Activate the circuit by clicking on the toggle switch in the upper right hand corner of EWB. It is a rocker switch with a 0 and 1 on it. The 1 means 'on' and the 0 means 'off'. " "" "4. Now turn the circuit on by pressing the spacebar once. " "" "5. Watch the voltmeters as the capacitors charge. When they have reached a steady state, record all values. " "" "6. Using Q = CV, find the charge on each capacitor in microcoulombs. Show calculations and answers on paper." "" "7. What do you think will happen to the voltmeter readings if you change the capacitors' values? Try it. Change the values of both capacitors. (Keep the values reasonable and random. Don't just double both, or triple both, etc.) Remember, to change the value of a capacitor, you must right click on the component itself, not on the number. Calculate the charges Q on each of the new capacitors. Show calculations and answers on paper." "" "8. Do at least one more set of new capacitor value. Do calculations and record values." "" "9. What patterns do you see?"
