    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 sinθ.

  3. Capacitance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitance

    The equation is a good approximation if d is small compared to the other dimensions of the plates so that the electric field in the capacitor area is uniform, and the so-called fringing field around the periphery provides only a small contribution to the capacitance. Combining the equation for capacitance with the above equation for the energy ...

  5. Farad - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farad

    The farad (symbol: F) is the unit of electrical capacitance, the ability of a body to store an electrical charge, in the International System of Units (SI), equivalent to 1 coulomb per volt (C/V). [1] It is named after the English physicist Michael Faraday (1791–1867). In SI base units 1 F = 1 kg −1 ⋅m −2 ⋅s 4 ⋅A 2.

    In this example, we employ the method of coefficients of potential to determine the capacitance on a two-conductor system. For a two-conductor system, the system of linear equations is ϕ 1 = p 11 Q 1 + p 12 Q 2 ϕ 2 = p 21 Q 1 + p 22 Q 2 . {\displaystyle {\begin{matrix}\phi _{1}=p_{11}Q_{1}+p_{12}Q_{2}\\\phi _{2}=p_{21}Q_{1}+p_{22}Q_{2}\end ...

  7. Lists of physics equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_physics_equations

    In physics, there are equations in every field to relate physical quantities to each other and perform calculations. Entire handbooks of equations can only summarize most of the full subject, else are highly specialized within a certain field. Physics is derived of formulae only.

  8. Permittivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permittivity

    The formula for capacitance in a parallel plate capacitor is written as C = ε A d {\displaystyle C=\varepsilon \ {\frac {A}{d}}} where A {\displaystyle A} is the area of one plate, d {\displaystyle d} is the distance between the plates, and ε {\displaystyle \varepsilon } is the permittivity of the medium between the two plates.

    j is the imaginary unit (i.e. j 2 = −1); and B is the real-valued susceptance, measured in siemens. The admittance ( Y ) is the reciprocal of the impedance ( Z ), if the impedance is not zero:
