In a series configuration, the current through all of the resistors is the same, but the voltage across each resistor will be in proportion to its ... more

The Townsend discharge is a gas ionization process where free electrons, accelerated by a sufficiently strong electric field, give rise to electrical ... 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

Components of an electrical circuit or electronic circuit can be connected in many different ways. The two simplest of these are called series and parallel ... 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

Auger electron spectroscopy is a common analytical technique used specifically in the study of surfaces and, more generally, in the area of materials ... more

Calculates the logarithmic mean size (moments method) of the particles’ size distribution of a soil, in phi scale

Damped harmonic motion is a real oscillation, in which an object is hanging on a spring. Because of the existence of internal friction and air resistance, ... more
