What could have happened if you charge electrolytic capacitor in reverse direction? - If you charge the electrolytic capacitor in the reverse direction, it’ll get destroyed. 2. Do you think the electrolytic capacitor is right for this experiment? Why or why not? - The percent errors were relatively low and the electrolytic capacitors worked efficiently. The large capacitance of the capacitor allowed for the signals to bypass and the low frequency signals allowed for a lot of energy storage.
3. What makes the sine wave amplitude decreasing so fast that you have few oscillations only? - The sine wave experiences very few oscillations because its amplitude is decreasing at a very fast rate. This is due to there being no resistance on the circuit and the sine wave flattens out as time passes. 4. Do you understand that you have just emitted radio wave with frequency f’? If you tune a radio to this frequency you would be able to hear it? Why or why not? - My group and I did not understand that we emitted a radio wave, but it does make sense. You should be able to hear a radio at this frequency since the first frequency is the same as the resonance frequency.
