0.2 nF, yes. I made a mistake there. That's exactly what I was trying to compare. Your suggestion definitely makes a lot more though. I'll look into it! Thanks for helping me out! Erik

Well, the only thing I can see is the bias error: the graph seems to be exactly the same, just shifted up by about 2nF. The circuit accounts for about 30pF of that (given). I figure the oscilloscope could add some to that (not quite sure how much). In addition, I'm curious what the effect of...

Note: This is a question about a physics experiment. As such, it does not completely fit into the provided template, but I'll do my best to stick to it anyway. Homework Statement The problem is about an experiment about parallel plates capacitors. The experimental setup is the following...

Thanks everyone for your responses! It's very much appreciated. HallsofIvy, that's pretty much what I was looking to hear. The book I'm using my studies is "advanced engineering mathematics" by zill & cullen. Personally I think it's not worth reading, having or even using as a coaster. I looked...

Hi, I'm learning differential equations, and although I understand the methods I have learned thus far, I often have trouble seeing what is the reasoning behind them. Take for example, the use of the integrating factor when solving first order linear ODE's. I understand how to use it, but...
