  2. RC time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC_time_constant

    It is the time required to charge the capacitor, through the resistor, from an initial charge voltage of zero to approximately 63.2% of the value of an applied DC voltage, or to discharge the capacitor through the same resistor to approximately 36.8% of its initial charge voltage.

  3. Paschen's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paschen's_law

    Paschen studied the breakdown voltage of various gases between parallel metal plates as the gas pressure and gap distance were varied: With a constant gap length, the voltage necessary to arc across the gap decreased as the pressure was reduced and then increased gradually, exceeding its original value.

  4. Displacement current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Displacement_current

    With some change of symbols (and units) combined with the results deduced in the section § Current in capacitors (r → J, R → −E, and the material constant E −2 → 4πε r ε 0 these equations take the familiar form between a parallel plate capacitor with uniform electric field, and neglecting fringing effects around the edges of the ...

  5. Time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_constant

    This means that the time constant is the time elapsed after 63% of V max has been reached Setting for t = for the fall sets V(t) equal to 0.37V max, meaning that the time constant is the time elapsed after it has fallen to 37% of V max. The larger a time constant is, the slower the rise or fall of the potential of a neuron.

  6. Series and parallel circuits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_and_parallel_circuits

    In a series circuit, the current that flows through each of the components is the same, and the voltage across the circuit is the sum of the individual voltage drops across each component. [1] In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each of the components is the same, and the total current is the sum of the currents flowing through each ...

  7. Norton's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norton's_theorem

    In direct-current circuit theory, Norton's theorem, also called the Mayer–Norton theorem, is a simplification that can be applied to networks made of linear time-invariant resistances, voltage sources, and current sources. At a pair of terminals of the network, it can be replaced by a current source and a single resistor in parallel.

    California could offer rebates for electric vehicle purchases if the incoming Trump administration eliminates a federal tax credit for people who buy electric cars, Gov. Gavin Newsom said Monday.

  9. Mathematical descriptions of the electromagnetic field

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_descriptions...

    The current 3-form can be integrated over a 3-dimensional space-time region. The physical interpretation of this integral is the charge in that region if it is spacelike, or the amount of charge that flows through a surface in a certain amount of time if that region is a spacelike surface cross a timelike interval.
