EM 52: RC Charging One Farad Capacitor


NOTE: One - Farad cap in parallel with light bulb. Light bulb intensity increases slowly over several seconds. Without cap, bulb lights instantly.
One - Farad cap in series (if discharged before using) lets bulb light immediately, but then bulb goes out as current dies away.
