set up: -I set up the oscilloscope with a BNC cable to ch1 connecting to the low output of the generator. Generator producing sine waves at ~50 Hz. Set on DC coupling. -ch1 positioned at v=0. Trigger set at v=0, slope-rising.
Measurements
Measurement- Voltage with original wave
1. using the grid to measure amplitude of the wave I get ~4.4 volts. 2. using the cursor mode I find an amplitude of ~4.64 volts. 3. Using the measure control I again find an amplitude of ~4.64 volts.
REPEATS:making voltage measurements using the measure and cursor controls for waves with of different applitudes and 20 and 30 hz. 1. 20hz wave, I find 2.72 volts after adjusting the amplitude. 2. 30 hz with another adjusted amplitude I find 1.36 volts as the amplitude.
