Learning Goal:
- I understand the characteristics of a capacitor.
Today:
PhET Simulation: Capacitor Lab. Use physical arguments to construct written answers to questions such as these:
- How does a battery charge a capacitor?
- How does the potential of each capacitor plate compare to the potential of the battery terminal to which it is connected?
- How do the positive and negative plates assume equal quantities of charge?
- Why does charge seem to flow through a capacitor?
- Students illustrate their understanding of the relationships they uncover by sketching graphs.
