Experimental Demonstration of Capacitor Charging and Discharging Current Waveforms
The charging and discharging currents of a capacitor are exponential waveforms. The charging current decreases from its maximum value to zero, while discharging current flows in the opposite direction and decreases to zero.
Charging —> Positive exponential decay (V/R to 0)
Discharging —> Negative exponential decay (- V_o/R to 0)
