In this module the student will learn about another circuit quantity, capacitance, and discover the effects of this component on circuit current, voltage, and power. The module is divided into seven lessons: the capacitor, theory of capacitance, total capacitance, RC (resistive-capacitive circuit) time constant, capacitive reactance, phase and…

The module covers series circuits which contain both resistive and reactive components and methods of solving these circuits for current, voltage, impedance, and phase angle. The module is divided into six lessons: voltage and impedance in AC (alternating current) series circuits, vector computations, rectangular and polar notation, variational…

In this module the student will combine RL (resistive-inductance) and RC (resistive-capacitive) circuits and learn some of the phenomena which result. The module is divided into four lessons: solving RLC (resistive-inductance-capacitive) circuits, resonant frequency in series circuits, conditions of series resonance, and experiments with series…

In this module the student will learn about parallel RL (resistive-inductance), RC (resistive-capacitive), and RCL (resistive-capacitive-inductance) circuits and the conditions that exist at resonance. The module is divided into six lessons: solving for quantities in RL parallel circuits; variational analysis of RL parallel circuits; parallel RC…

The final module emphasizes utilizing the information learned in modules 1-14 to analyze and evaluate the power supply constructed in Module 0.
