There are also analogies between these systems that can be made to help gain intuition about a particular system based on its equivalent counterpart in another domain. The analogy that we are in particular interested in is between the electrical and mechanical systems. There are two valid ways of modeling mechanical systems with electrical circuit components. In the first method, current-velocity, and voltage-force are considered analogous. Alternatively, in the second method, voltage-velocity, and current-force are considered analogous. The latter, which is referred to as the mobility (or admittance) analogy, is advantageous in that it helps us maintain the topology of the system that we are working with as we move between the mechanical and electrical domains. This is the approach that we will focus on here.
