This Power Tip shows you how to do a quick conversion of parallel-to-series complex impedances (and vice versa). It also shows that a graphical representation of this transformation as a function of ...

Two lamps connected in series with an open switch and a cell The circuit diagram shows a circuit with two lamps connected in series. If one lamp breaks, the other lamp will not light. The current is ...

Series and Parallel Circuit Series and parallel circuits are two fundamental configurations in electrical circuits, each with distinct characteristics that affect how electricity flows through them.

Situation: You’re an IT person new to radio broadcast engineering and are given the keys to an AM transmitter site. The manager says to go out and get familiar with the equipment. The site reminds you ...

The current flowing in a series circuit is the same everywhere. Figure caption, A series circuit with two bulbs and one cell. The ammeter will read the same at points 1, 2 or 3. In series circuits, ...

A special frequency determined by the values of the resistance, capacitance and inductance refers to the resonance in AC circuits. The resonant frequency point occurs where the inductive reactance of ...

We define the properties of parallel and complex circuits. Unit 5 Segment H: Parallel and Complex Circuits We define the properties of parallel and complex circuits. We examine how to find the total ...

Last month's column covered the behavior of electrical components connected in series and demonstrated that when a voltage is applied across a series circuit, the current through each component is the ...
