RC Circuits with Wavegenerator

Today we learned how to work with a bread board and hooked up some circuits. First, a circuit with a resistor and an LED was set up so as to make the LED light up. A power source light up the circuit by providing power. 



Then, we set up another circuit. In this one, we wanted to control the light at will, so we installed the little black box with the blue button on it. The blue button played the role of switch and let electricity through when the blue button was touched once.


Then we hooked up a wavegenerator to a oscilloscope. We chose the frequency and voltage shown below and the curve showed up.


Then we set up an RC circuit that we ended up hooking up the oscilloscope to. This also gave us the curve shown in the oscilloscope.
