The graph shows the free space open circuit voltage response frequency characteristic. in the resistance between the diaphragm and the carbon cup. For small displacements the change in resistance is proportional to the displacement. Consider the circuit of Fig. , for sinusoidal motion of the diaphragm, the current, in amperes, in the circuit is given by reo + hx sin co/ where e = voltage of the battery, in volts, Veo = total resistance of the circuit when ^ = 0, in ohms, X = amplitude of the diaphragm, in centimeters, h = constant of the carbon element, in ohms per centimeter, CO = 2Tf, and â / = frequency, in cycles per second.
