Voltage and Capacitance

by Ryan Weaver

Submitted : Spring 2009

The idea of this project was to find the optimum capacitance, for varying frequencies, to maximize the voltage across the capacitor in a given RLC circuit. Ryan was to design a spreadsheet. This spreadsheet would allow me to view a graph that plotted voltage across a capacitor versus time. Ryan used Microsoft Excel to create the chart, the formula readouts and the graph. The graph now shows the voltages the capacitor holds as time goes on.
