In this part, we are connecting the function generator that producing AC current and square function in 10Hz(20Hz) across the capacitor with a current probe in series with the capacitor as show in picture above. We also connect the current sensor and voltage sensor with the circuit to measure the current follow through the circuit and voltage changed across the capacitor.
Current vs time & Potential vs time graph. We can find the maximum current and maximum voltage from the graph. We then going to use the data to calculate the RMS current, RMS voltage and reactance.
First, we are applying the equations as show in the picture to calculate the theoretical reactance(Xc) and RES current(Irms). Second, we calculate the actual Irms and Xc base on our experiment data to compare with the theoretical Irms and Xc. When we set the frequency at 10Hz, our actual reactance is different than the theoretical value. When we set the frequency at 20Hz, our actual reactance almost equal to the theoretical reactance.
Inductor in AC-Circuit
In this part, we are connecting the function generator that producing AC current and square function in 10Hz across the inductor with a current probe in series with the inductor. We also connect the current sensor and voltage sensor with the circuit to measure the current follow through the circuit and voltage changed across the inductor.
Current vs time & Potential vs time graph as show in pictures below. We are using the state function in Logger Pro to find the maximum current and maximum voltage from the graph. We then going to use those datas to calculate the RMS current, RMS voltage and resistance in inductor.
