If you connect only an oscilloscope, no coil, to the function generator when it is set to "high Z" (100,000 ohms) mode and 5V output and the input impedance of the the oscilloscope is 10,000,000 ohms, say, then the signal at the oscilloscope will be 10,000,000/10,100,000*5V i.e. about 5V As...

The more that I read about this subject, the more humble I become. Have a look at https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4247394/ if you want to consider related explanations/speculations, albeit 3 years old, that suggest the evolution of the Higgs Field has had tremendous effects. Thanks...

Oh, but... https://arxiv.org/abs/1707.06922 and in particular: We point out that the expansion of the universe leads to a cosmological time evolution of the vacuum expectation of the Higgs boson. Within the standard model of particle physics, the cosmological time evolution of the vacuum...

I assume that before the Big Bang, there was no Higgs Field, since there was no universe for it to fill. I assume that at the moment of the Big Bang, it began to seep into every corner of the expanding universe and was carried by inflation, that is, moving faster than the speed of light by the...

With the function generator in "Hi Z" mode, it is like the function generator has a 100,000 ohm resistor in series with its output. When it feeds a 4 ohm coil, the voltage across the coil will be 4/100004 * 5 Volts.

I've been out of physics for decades, so probably not able to help unless the problem involves undergraduate physics or electronics.

I'm retired, but still programming, designing hardware, but now, just for my own interests.
