Transients and Oscillations in RLC Circuits.
Outline
Main goals of this week Lab:
Transients. Definition.
transient ( physics ) a short-lived oscillation in a
system caused by a sudden change of voltage or
current or load
a transient response or natural response is the
response of a system to a change from equilibrium.

Transients in RLC circuit. Critically-damped
solution b2=0
For this case the general solution can be found as
q(t)=(A2+B2t)e-at. Applying the same initial condition
the current can be written as i=a2q0te-at
Critical damped case shows the
fastest decay with no oscillations

Transients in RLC circuit. Critically-damped
solution. Real data analysis. b2=0
In this experiment R=300 ohms,
C=1mF, L=33.43mH.
The output resistance of Wavetek is 50 ohms and
resistance of coil was measured as 8.7 ohms, so actual
resistance of the network is Ra=300+50+8.7=358.7
