Capacitance
In this chapter, the electrical property of capacitance and another electronic circuit component, the capacitor, are introduced. The physical and electrical properties of capacitors are discussed. Series and parallel capacitive ac circuits are described and analyzed. The capacitor and the effects of capacitive action in ac series and parallel circuits are described.
At the end of this chapter, you should be able to:
1. List the names of common types of capacitors and discuss the characteristics of each.
2. Define capacitance and the capacitive property.
3. Describe two effects of capacitors in ac circuits.
4. Describe the ...
