Course content

1 section8 lectures42m total length
  • Introduction0:06
  • Review5:03
  • A First Example of a RC Circuit11:15

    explain a first rc circuit: a switch moves a 100-volt source to a resistor network, yielding capacitor and 240 kΩ resistor voltages that decay with a 40 ms time constant.

  • A Second Example of a RC Circuit7:02

    Analyze a second RC circuit where a current source charges a capacitor that discharges through a 50 kΩ resistor after the switch opens, with the voltage decaying from 200 V.

  • A Second Example of a RC Circuit - How Capacitor Energy Decays Over Time5:59
  • 5.  A Third Example of a RC Circuit - Finding Initial & Final Values (Steps 1-4)8:15
  • 5.  A Third Example of a RC Circuit - Time Constant & Final Equation (Steps 5-6)4:06

    the lecture analyzes a third rc circuit example, computes a 1 ms time constant from 37.5 kilohms and 25 nanofarads, and shows capacitor voltage moving from -120 to +150 volts.

  • Summary0:58

    Follow a proven process to solve resistor capacitor circuits. Stay calm, prepared, and use these steps we can always follow to solve homework and test problems.

Requirements

  • High School or College Physics
  • Calculus 1 Would Be Extremely Helpful

Description

Day 31 of Linear Circuits.  Now that we have a simple process to solve any resistor-capacitor circuit, we apply the process to even more example circuits.  Again, we take it nice and slow, and we don't skip any steps so you don't miss anything important.


The material covers all of the lecture material from an thirtieth lecture in a traditional, sophomore-level linear circuits class.
