Today we prepared for tomorrow's lab work. The purpose of our experiment is to find out how the potential created by two parallel aluminum bars depends on position around these bars.
We will use a power supply and a voltmeter to fulfill this purpose. To find how one variable depends on another, we will plot the dependent variable (here it is the potential that "depends") on the y-axis and the independent variable on the x-axis, as usual. It turns out that a spreadsheet can be a great way to make such a plot. So bring your computers if you wish to put them to use! Comments are closed.
