RC Circuit with Battery Model

written by Andrew Duffy

The RC Circuit with Battery model investigates a circuit involving a resistor R, a capacitor C, and a battery. The resistor and capacitor are in series with one another and the battery is switched in series with both components or switched out of the circuit.

The RC Circuit with Battery model was created using the Easy Java Simulations (EJS) modeling tool. It is distributed as a ready-to-run (compiled) Java archive. Double clicking the ejs_bu_duffy_RC.jar file will run the program if Java is installed.

Please note that this resource requires at least version 1.5 of Java (JRE).
