Resistors in a parallel configuration are each subject to the same potential difference (voltage), however the currents through them add

The heat flow can be modelled by analogy to an electrical circuit where heat flow is represented by current, temperatures are represented by voltages, heat ... more

Heat engines transform thermal energy, or heat into mechanical energy, or work. They cannot do this task perfectly, so some of the input heat energy is not ... more

The voltage of one of the two nearby coupled inductors

A brushed DC motor is an internally commutated electric motor designed to be run from a direct current power source. Brushed motors were the first ... more

Deformation in continuum mechanics is the transformation of a body from a reference configuration to a current configuration.
Strain is a normalized ... more

In physics and engineering, the time constant, usually denoted by the Greek letter (tau), is the parameter characterizing the response to a step input of ... more

Self-inductance is the voltage produced by the changing of the electric current through a circuit that contains inductance, which opposes the change in ... more

Mutual inductance is the voltage produced by the changing of the electric current through a circuit that contains inductance, which opposes the change in ... more

It is defined as the peak energy stored in the circuit divided by the average energy dissipated in it per cycle at resonance; Q factor is directly ... more
