A satellite is an artificial body placed in orbit around the earth or another planet in order to collect information and for communication. Generally, it is an object that moves…

The point of this lab is to see the relationship between the driving frequency and the reactive capacitance. When we increase the frequency, the total circuit impedance will decrease, making the the amplitude increase. We also find out that the voltage across capacitor and voltage across resistor is the same when their resistance are the…
