A circuit is set up with a 6 V power supply, a capacitor, a resistor R, a switch S, and a voltmeter measuring voltage V across R as a function of time t.
Test the hypothesis that V is inversely proportional to t by reading data from Figure 2 to complete Table 1, and then plotting 1/V against t on the provided grid.
