  2. Electrical reactance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_reactance

    In electrical circuits, reactance is the opposition presented to alternating current by inductance and capacitance. [1] Along with resistance, it is one of two elements of impedance; however, while both elements involve transfer of electrical energy, no dissipation of electrical energy as heat occurs in reactance; instead, the reactance stores energy until a quarter-cycle later when the energy ...

  3. List of physics mnemonics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_physics_mnemonics

    A Magic Triangle image mnemonic - when the terms of Ohm's law are arranged in this configuration, covering the unknown gives the formula in terms of the remaining parameters. It can be adapted to similar equations e.g. F = ma , v = fλ , E = mcΔT , V = π r 2 h and τ = rF sin θ .

  4. LC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LC_circuit

    Resonance occurs when an LC circuit is driven from an external source at an angular frequency ω 0 at which the inductive and capacitive reactances are equal in magnitude. The frequency at which this equality holds for the particular circuit is called the resonant frequency.

  5. Gyrator–capacitor model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyrator–capacitor_model

    It may be inductive = or capacitive =, where is the angular frequency of a magnetic current, is the magnetic inductiance of a circuit, is the magnetic capacitance of a circuit. The magnetic reactance of an undeveloped circuit with the inductance and the capacitance which are connected in series, is equal: x = x L − x C = ω L M − 1 ω C M ...

  6. Transient recovery voltage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transient_Recovery_Voltage

    Examples of TRV waveshapes. A transient recovery voltage (TRV) for high-voltage circuit breakers is the voltage that appears across the terminals after current interruption. It is a critical parameter for fault interruption by a high-voltage circuit breaker, its characteristics (amplitude, rate of rise) can lead either to a successful current interruption or to a failure (called reignition or ...

  7. Coupling coefficient of resonators - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coupling_coefficient_of...

    Summation of the inductive and capacitive coupling coefficients is performed by formula [3] = + +. (8) This formula is derived from the definition (6) and formulas (4) and (7). Note that the sign of the coupling coefficient itself is of no importance. Frequency response of the filter will not change if signs of all the coupling coefficients ...

  8. Contact resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_resistance

    where and are contact and channel resistances, respectively, / is the channel length/width, is gate insulator capacitance (per unit of area), is carrier mobility, and and are gate-source and drain-source voltages. Therefore, the linear extrapolation of total resistance to the zero channel length provides the contact resistance.

  9. RLC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RLC_circuit

    The initial conditions are that the capacitor is at voltage, V 0, and there is no current flowing in the inductor. If the inductance L is known, then the remaining parameters are given by the following – capacitance: = , resistance (total of circuit and load):
