Q

relationship between resistance and capacitance in a network

A

in a network, energy consumed by resistor network is equal to energy supplied by capacitance
can measure energy consumed by resistors by using formula for capacitance
Q=CV
PE = 1/2QV
PE = 1/2CV^2

Q

electric field created by a charge

A

E = kQ/r^2

17
Q

how charges move in conductor vs insulator

A

conductor: excess charge moves to opposite side of surface because they repel, no electric field is created and inside E= 0 because they cancel out
insulator: charged Q means it will become polarized

18
Q

current is

A

Q/t

19
Q

resistance changes depending on

A

R = pL/A
p: internal resistivity
A: area
L: length

20
Q

power is

A

I^2R

IV

21
Q

V is

A

IR
resistance remains constant at varying V
current reverses if V polarity reverses

22
Q

resistors in series

A

same current

R+R

23
Q

resistors in parallel

A

same voltage
RR/R+R
current going in + current coming out

24
Q

capacitors in series

A

same current

CC/C+C

25
Q

capacitors in parallel

A

same voltage

C+C

26
Q

measuring current or voltage

A

measure current in series - for internal resistance to be negligible, you want it small
measure voltage in parallel - for internal resistance to be negligible you want it big

27
Q

what a capacitor is and what they’re used for

A

pair of conductors that hold equal but opposite charge
creates uniform electric field throughout V=Ed
stores electrical potential energy

28
Q

charge on a capacitor, how to change capacitance

A

Q=CV
C=EA/d
C only changes with change in area, distance, or E: permitivity of free space

29
Q

how is Q=CV affected by dielectric if connected to a battery

A

Q increases to keep V at same level despite dielectric, increasing C

30
Q

how is Q=CV affected by dielectric if not connected to a battery

A

becomes polarized to lower V, which then increases C

31
Q

what happens to Q, C, V, electric field, and potential energy if capacitor is charged by battery, disconnected, and dielectric inserted

A
Q same cuz on battery
C increases w dielectric so V goes down
with V=Ed electric field decreases
with PE=1/2QV PE also decreases
where does PE go? some get stored as induced dipoles, some KE you feel when plates pull on dielectric
32
Q

what happens to Q, C, V, electric field, and potential energy if capacitor is charged, and dielectric is inserted while connected

A

V same cuz battery
C increases, so Q increases
in V=Ed, E doesn’t change
in PE = 1/2QV, PE increases

33
Q

dielectric breakdown

A

when electric field is so strong that dielectric becomes ionized and electrons flow
