Basics 21 October 2024 22:13 Resistors: 1. What is the primary function of a resistor in a circuit? 2. How is resistance measured, and what is its unit? 3. What is Ohm's Law, and how does it relate to a resistor? 4. What happens to the current in a circuit when the resistance increases? 5. Can resistors be connected in both series and parallel configurations? How do their total resistances differ in each case? Inductors: 1. What is the role of an inductor in an electrical circuit? 2. What physical property does inductance oppose in a circuit? 3. What is the unit of inductance, and what symbol is used to represent it? 4. How does an inductor behave in a DC circuit after a long period? 5. What happens to the current through an inductor when the voltage across it changes suddenly? Capacitors: 1. What is the primary function of a capacitor in a circuit? 2. How is capacitance measured, and what is its unit? 3. What happens when a capacitor is fully charged in a DC circuit? 4. How does a capacitor react to alternating current (AC) versus direct current (DC)? 5. What is the relationship between capacitance, voltage, and charge in a capacitor? New Section 1 Page 1
