5F30.20 • D+0+14

Computer demo: Charge/discharge of a capacitor, runs 3 min.This program plots voltage versus time for the charging and discharging of a capacitor through a series resistor. Two values of resistor (1 Meg ohm or 2 Meg ohms) and 2 values of capacitor (5 micro f or 10 micro f) can be chosen. After the plot is finished (at least 1 min.) , follow the instruction sheet to locate time constant. CAPACITANCE.
