ten; decreasing the capacitor value by ten increases the frequency<br />

ten-fold. Five different values of capacitor therefore<br />

give an adequate range of frequencies.<br />

As you do the experiment you’ll find that only quite low voltages<br />

are measured (up to about 4 V a.c.) so depending on your<br />
