Description:
The course introduces the principles and laws applicable to direct and alternating current circuits. Topics include defining charge, current, potential difference, resistance, capacitance and inductance. Series and parallel circuits are analyzed using Ohm's and Kirchhoff's Laws. Superposition and Thevenin's Theorems are used to solve complex circuits. The transient response of capacitive and inductive circuits are analyzed. A recitation is required as a work session to further investigate difficult concepts.
