Question 1. What variable in the circuit is being displayed as a function of time?

Question 2. How is the curve above related to i(t) in figure 3 (for the RC circuit)?

Observation (inductor)

IV Change the decade resistance to 100 ohms. Interchange the capacitor with the many-turn    inductor and note the display of the scope.
