I. Experiment Motivations
a. Without core
Us = 1.00 (V)
I0 = 0.09 (A)
Slope S = 1289.95239
Coil inductance :
US 1.00 −3
LW /O = = =9 ×10 (H )
I O × S 0.09 ×1289.85239
b. With core
Us = 1.00 (V)
I0 = 0.09 (A)
Slope S = 277.25686
The resistance of the coil :
U S 1.00
R L= = =11.11(Ω)
I O 0.09
Coil inductance :
US 1.00
LW /O = = =4 ×10−2(H )
I O × S 0. 09 ×277.25686
Explain: After putting the core inside the coil, the coil’s inductance is significantly increase.
This phenomenon occurred because the core has higher permeability than the air, so
magnetic field can be transferred through the core easier, thus the coil inductance
increase.

b. Energy
The total energy in RLC circuit:
1 2 1 2
U =U c + U L = C V + L I
2 2
Comment:
- After stopping the electric power, the energy of the circuit does not decrease
rapidly to zero, it reduces to zero over a short period of time.
- The energy of oscillations of the coil and the capacitor are damped oscillations.
Explain:
The energy of the circuit loses by the heat of the resistor at rate i 2 R
The graph of total energy is steepest at the time that the magnetic energy reaches a
local maximum because in these times, the current through the coil is highest, and
the loss of energy is mainly due to the resistance of the coil ( ΔQ=i 2 R ).
