Last month's column covered the behavior of electrical components connected in series and demonstrated that when a voltage is applied across a series circuit, the current through each component is the ...

Look at almost any circuit, and it’s nearly sure that there will be a capacitor included in it. These two-terminal electrical components rank alongside resistors.

In Part 1 of the Electronics for Kids series, we looked at LEDs; in Part 2, we explored capacitors; and in Part 3, we took an in-depth look at electrical measurements. In this article, we will focus ...

Electric circuits often consist of several elements, some combined in series and others in parallel. The methods used to analyze series and parallel circuits can be combined to analyze these ...
