Sinusoids and phasors are the two extremely important functions developed for analysing AC circuits. In this article you will learn what are sinusoids and phasors, why they are used and …
Charging and discharging are the two main effects of capacitors. In this article, you will learn about charging and discharging a capacitor. When a voltage is applied on a capacitor …
In this basic electrical engineering article, you will learn three different methods used for the combination of resistances. Resistances can be connected in three ways as follows: Series combination Parallel …
Inductors are electrical components that oppose the flow of alternating current (AC) by temporarily storing energy as magnetic fields. The action of an inductor is known as Inductance. This article …
If a person receives an electric shock, it is the utmost duty of the observer to rescue the person. The first step is to disconnect the person immediately from the …
The directed flow of free electrons (or charge) is called the electric current. The electric current may be classified into three main types: Steady current (DC Current) Varying current Alternating …
In this article, you will study the concept of electric potential, potential difference (PD) and electromotive force (EMF) and the difference between them. Just as a body raised above the …
The Stroboscopic Effect in Fluorescent lamp is a phenomenon which causes running or moving equipment to appear stationary or appear to be operating slower than they actually are. Fluorescent materials …
There are two basic ways in which to connect more than two circuit components – series and parallel. This video explains series and parallel circuits using water analogy. The analogy helps …
