Resistor-Capacitor (RC) Circuits
• Build this circuit in Multisim.• Look at the voltage across the capacitor on the oscilloscope.• Describe what you see when the switch moves between
positions (let the switch stay in each position until the capacitor voltage stops changing).

Discharging a Capacitor Through a Resistor
• In the following circuit, when the switch moves from the battery + to ground, the voltage across the capacitor is
vc(t) = Vse-t/RC

Questions
• What are the units of RC in vc(t) = Vse-t/RC ?
• Since vc(t) = Vse-t/RC and , what is i(t) in terms of Vs, R and C?
• What do vc(t) and i(t) look like on a graph?

Rectangular Wave
• If you repeatedly switch between the battery and the short you are effectively applying a rectangular time pulse to the RC circuit.
