Title of Experiment: Building a Circiut
Class & Section: PHYS 244-2D1
All lab partners:
Sebah Khiar, Annie Nguyen, Lauryn Hill
Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to understand how to build a circuit as well as to calculate and measure circuit parameters. Physical Quantities and Units:
Physical Quantity
Unit
Capacitance Farads ( F)
Resistance
Ohm (Ω)
Key Equations:
Ctotal = (1/c1 + 1/c2 +1/c3 )…. ^-1
Ctotal = (C1 +C2 + C3….) Rtotal = R1 +R2 + R3 + R4
Rtotal = (1/R1 + 1/R2 +1/R3) ^-1
Summary of Procedure:
This experiment will be conducted in 2 parts, both on PhET lab. The first activity consists of utilizing the simulation to predict the overall capacitance of a circuit from the given figure 4 in the lab handout. The circuit will be built in the simulation and the capacitance between points A, B and C will be measured. This will later be analyzed in excel. In activity 2, we will also utilize the simulation but to predict the overall
circuit resistance from the given figure 5 in the lab handout. The points of reference will be A, B, C, and D.
This will also be analyzed in excel.

FACTS:
AC-DC converters take the AC power from wall outlets and convert it to unregulated DC. These power supplies include transformers that change the voltage of the AC that comes through wall outlets, rectifiers to save it from AC to DC and a filter that removes noise from the peaks and troths of the AC power waves.The DC-to-AC Converters are used to charge the batteries in the vehicles. These circuits are mainly used for driving low-power AC motors and are used in a solar power system. The DC to AC converters can be used in dc transmission lines for transmitting power to loads.
QUESTION:
What do you think is the main reason why we have AC power in our outlets instead of DC power? Explain your answer.
