Introduction:
A sinusoidal signal is applied to a series resistive-capacitive circuit, and the potential
developed across the resistor and capacitor is investigated for amplitude and phase relationship
to the input. A square wave input is next applied, and the capacitor and resistor voltages are
again investigated.

Analysis:
2. Sketch a phasor diagram for the RC circuit, using the measured values of V R, VC, VS and
Ø.
4. Review any data you have collected and determine if VS equals the arithmetic sum of the
values of VR and VC. Explain your findings.
5. Does the circuit Z equal the sum of the values of R and XC? Explain your findings.
