     Position cursor A to the point
     of 1 time constant to obtain
     the result displayed.
Repeat the procedures by changing the values
   1) R = __________ohm, L=_______H
   2) R = __________ohm, L=_______H
   3) R = __________ohm, L=_______H
    Calculate the time constant in all the cases.
