Inductance
What is Inductance? Inductance is the property of a circuit whereby there is an emf induced into the circuit by the change of flux linkages produced by a current change. When the emf is induced in the same circuit as that which the current is changing, the property is called self-inductance, L. When the emf…

Capacitors, Capacitance and Charge
Introduction to Capacitors A capacitor is an electrical device that is used to store electrical energy. A capacitor consists of two metal plates separated by an insulator called a dielectric. It stores electricity in the form of an excess of electrons on one plate and a deficiency on the other. In this state, the capacitor…
