Series and Parallel Capacitors
In this lab, students will use a capacitance meter to measure the equivalent capacitance in simple series and parallel circuits. Then, they'll determine the equivalent capacitance of capacitors connected in series and parallel.
Electric Field Mapping
Students use a DC power supply and semi-conductive paper to create dipole and parallel plate electrodes, and then use the principles of electric fields and electric potential energy to determine the shape and direction of the...

Capacitor Fundamentals
In this lab, students use a digital capacitance meter and construct capacitors from aluminum foil and paper to determine how physical properties of a parallel-plate capacitor affect its ability to store electric charge.
