Wedensday's lab

Wednesday's lab will be all about capacitors, or at least how they combine in parallel and series.

You can find the procedure here.

Apologies for posting it a bit late, but please read the whole procedure before getting started with anything and start connecting wires, capacitors, and power supplies all willy-nilly.

Big safety hint: make sure your power supply is turned off, and maybe even unplugged to be sure, before wiring up your circuit. Before turning on the power supplies, make sure the voltage and current knobs are turned all the way to zero.

Capacitors can react angrily to a sudden spike in voltage, and the magic smoke inside may escape ...
