Experiment - power vectors

Select the Power vector instrument from the menu or using the mouse. Set the amplitude
percentage to 80.

Halving the load:

Connect the load resistors in series and investigate the effect on the power vectors.
Change the wiring of the experiment as follows:
Experiment with a simple rectifier

The Timing diagram instrument allows measurement of four different variables. Such a
measurement is performed in two steps.

Select the Timing diagram instrument from the View menu or by using the mouse. Set the
percentage amplitude (Amplitude/%) to 80.
