Linear Circuits 1 - 02 - Voltage Sources
Requirements
- High School or College Physics
Description
Day 2 of Linear Circuits. Students spend more time working with voltage sources. Problems are solved a couple different ways, each with a different ground location. It turns out that the ground location in a circuit is not that important after all.
The material covers all of the lecture material from a second lecture in a traditional, sophomore-level linear circuits class.
