How to find fully charged RC?
=5RC
(5×Resistance×Capacitance)
(R = Ohm’s, C=Farads)
What is Power measured in?
Watts (W)
What is Power measured in?
Watts (W)
What is Energy measured in
Joules (J)
What’s the potential divider equation
(Vin x R2)/(R1+R2)
How do you work out the Short Circuit Current
Vin/R1
How to work out the Equivalent Resistance
Req = Voc/Isc
Resistors in Parallel?
Rt = 1/R1 + 1/R2
Resistors in Series
Rt = R1 + R2
Capacitors in Parralel
Ct = C1 + C2
(Ct = Total Capacitance)
Capacitors in series
Ct = 1/C1 + 1/C2
(Ct = total Capacitance)
What is Capacitors measured in?
Farads (F)
What happens to voltage in series?
It’s split across the components
Vt = V1 + V2
What happens to voltage in parallel
It stays the same throughout all the split off sections
What happens to current in series?
It stays the same throughout the circuit
What happens to current in parallel
It splits off between the sections
