Inductors in Series
Therefore inductor combine like resistor
5.1.1 Capacitors in Series
5.1.1 Capacitors in Parallel Therefore capacitor combine like conductor
Example 5.1 A voltage source is applied to a 5-F capacitor as shown. Sketch the capacitor current and the stored energy as a function of time.
Example 5.2 A current source is applied to a 5-F capacitor. Sketch the capacitor voltage as a function of time.
The capacitor voltage is related to area Under current source. For example area at t = 1 s is Area of Triangle is (1)(10)=10 V(1s)=10/5= 2V. For example area at t=3 s is 10+10+5 = 25 hence V(3s)=25/5= 5V.
Example 5.3 A current source is applied to a 5-H inductor as shown. Sketch the voltage across the inductor versus time.
Example 5.4 A voltage source is applied to a 5-H inductor as shown. Sketch the inductor current versus time.
