Hi, thanks for your reply. Well, I believe we do have the I/t and V/t graphs as they are not analogue. But I am still missing the point on how to do it. But thanks for the tip on varying the distance between the plates to alter capacitance, i'll be sure to use that when writing the final essay.

Hmm, it seems I am out of luck then - as my knowledge on how to do this is very limited when it comes to building a device or devising a method on how to do it with the given materials. This assignment is ridiculous!

But aren't the units of voltage and amps measured in units per second? Wouldn't that suffice as a tool to measure time, in some indirect way?

bump, can anyone please help? I need to formula a 500 word essay on this and I am not sure where to start.

Chi Meson, thank you for you reply and time. Using C = Q/V, and amps being related to charge, we can say that Voltage = Q/C, so to work out the voltage, we would get the value of the reading of the ammeter and divide it by the value of the capacitance? Is that so? In which case, to work...

Hi, How can I measure the capacitance of a capacitor, using the following: a battery, a digital voltmeter (which records voltage as a function of time), a digital ammeter (which records current as a function of time), an industrial capacitor, two copper plates, and several...

Homework Statement Hey, Basically my EPI (Extended Practical Investigation) is coming up and I need to conduct an experiment in class and research at home. The topic is Motion, and I can pretty much do anything I want - as long as i can work something out, or prove a formula. I was...
