Figure 5.11<br />

Graph of my results from Table 5.4 in the same experiment<br />

which is more or less what we found in the experiment. In<br />

the second voltage divider, with a 10 nF capacitor, the corner<br />

frequency increases by ten to 66,666 Hz.<br />

Remembering what we learned last chapter about resistors<br />

and capacitors in charging/discharging circuits, we can simplify<br />

the expression for corner frequency to:<br />
