 Objective:

In this experiment, we shall study some aspects of sinusoidal waveform, and

correlate these with practically measurable values such as- rms. value (also
called effective value), phase angle and time period. Also an exposure to simple
ac circuit and some circuit elements are made. Try to familiarize yourself with

• Oscilloscope
• How to measure peak value, phase angle and time period (frequency)
using oscilloscope
• The methods of measuring rms. value both using oscilloscope and
multimeter
• Difference between AC & DC setting of multimeter& oscilloscope
• Capacitor, resistor and
• breadboard

Equipments:

1. Oscilloscope
2. Function generator (used as ac source)
3. Resistors : 1k, 220 ohm
4. Capacitor : 1 uf
5. Multimeter
6. AC ammeter
7. Switch : SPST
8. Breadboard

Calculation :
For experiment,

f=1000 HZ

t=0.11 ms

Q=360 x990x 0.11x10-3

=39.204
Question &answer:
A) Vrms : 10xSin(2x3.1416x990x0.11x10-3)
=11.94 V

B) When the time period decreases the frequency of the wave increases
and when the time period increases the frequency of the wave
decreases.
C) For 1uF,Xc=1/2*3.1416*1K*1uF
=159ohm
Z=Xr+Xc
=1000+159/_-90
=1012.56,/_-9.03

D) Z=1012.56,/_-9.03

Discussion :
1) When, we increased frequency more than 1000, the sinusoidal waves were
fluctuating.
2) For technical error, we could not determine current from ammeter. Here, we
had to find Z theoretically
