In this simulation, a resistor and a capacitor are connected in series to a 12-Volt battery. When the switch closes, the capacitor begins to charge. A voltmeter is connected across the capacitor, and a graph of the voltage across the capacitor vs. time is also shown. Vary the values of the resistor (1 W < R < 10 W) and capacitor (10 mf < C < 50 mf). How do these affect the charging of the capacitor? | ||
