OCR H556
Suggested PAG activity — PAG 9 – Investigating capacitors / example: time constant from log-linear graph
OCR requires PAG 9 capacitor measurement and data processing; determining the time constant from the gradient of ln V or ln I against time is the specification example.

Capacitor charge, discharge and time constant
Record capacitor voltage during charge and discharge, linearise the discharge data and determine the RC time constant and capacitance.
This simulation supports preparation and data-analysis practice. It does not replace carrying out real practical work.
