C I L Q LC Circuit
Your Comments I am not feeling great about this midterm...some of this stuff is really confusing still and I don't know if I can shove everything into my brain in time, especially after spring break. Can you go over which topics will be on the exam Wednesday? This was a very confusing prelecture. Do you think you could go over thoroughly how the LC circuits work qualitatively? I may have missed something simple, but in question 1 during the prelecture why does the charge on the capacitor have to be 0 at t=0? I feel like that bit of knowledge will help me with the test wednesday I remember you mentioning several weeks ago that there was one equation you were going to add to the 2013 equation sheet... which formula was that? Thanks!

Introduction recent topics in several areas of science and technology due to its vast potential in various Metamaterials are artificial materials synthesized applications. These are artificially fabricated by embedding specific inclusions like periodic materials which exhibit negative permittivity structures in host media. These materials have and/or negative permeability. The unusual the unique property of negative permittivity electromagnetic properties of metamaterial and/or negative permeability not encountered in have opened more opportunities for better the nature. If materials have both parameters antenna design to surmount the limitations of negative at the same time, then they exhibit an conventional antennas. Metamaterials have effective negative index of refraction and are created many designs in a broad frequency referred to as Left-Handed Metamaterials spectrum from microwave to millimeter wave (LHM). This name is given to these materials to optical structures. The edifice building because the electric field, magnetic field and the blocks of metamaterials are synthetically wave vector form a left-handed system. These fabricated periodic structures of having materials offer a new dimension to the antenna lattice constants smaller than the wavelength applications.

Although several previous works have tribution systems are largely due to the superior performance of analyzed and established loss models for the DC/DC [9]– DC/DC converters. Nonetheless, these studies are often based on [12] and AC/DC PFC [13]–[20] boost converters, they each product data that differs widely in manufacturer and operating have their own methods and formulae, making an analytic voltage.

DIRECT CURRENT CIRCUITS I [Written by Suzanne Amador Kane; Modified Slightly for Our Purposes.] Readings: Serway, Chapters 27–28
DIRECT CURRENT CIRCUITS I [Written by Suzanne Amador Kane; Modified slightly for our purposes.] Readings: Serway, Chapters 27–28. At long last we are ready to begin work with Direct Current (DC) Circuits. DC circuits are those in which the voltages and currents are constant, or time-independent. Time-dependent circuits in which the current oscillates periodically are referred to as Alternating Current (AC) circuits. We will study AC circuits soon enough. As you know, charge is the fundamental unit of electricity much as mass is the fundamental unit of gravitation. A significant difference is that mass is always positive (as far as we know), while charge can be either positive or negative. When charges flow, they form a current, just as when mass moves it has momentum. If we drop a mass, it "flows" down to a lower potential, and a potential difference in an electric circuit drives a current to the lower potential from the higher potential. Since charges come in both positive and negative flavors, electrical potential drives some charges up while others flow down. By analogy, if there were negative mass, it would fall up. When a ball is dropped into a liquid, it falls more slowly due to the resistance of the liquid. Likewise, in a circuit we insert a "resistor" which impedes the flow of current. In a circuit, the effect is to lower the rate at which charge moves, effectively lowering the current which flows through the circuit. It is useful to note here that if we did not have a resistor, in effect it would be like dropping a huge object onto the Earth without air resistance – look at the craters on the Moon to see how undesirable this would be! In circuits, this is called a "short circuit" and it quickly drains the potential while also risking serious damage to the components (and the experimenter). -

Introduction In Lecture 3 we completed the foundations of Dirac-notation quantum mechanics. Today we'll begin our study of the quantum harmonic oscillator, which is the quantum system that will pervade the rest of our semester's work. We'll start with a classical physics treatment and|because 6.453 is an Electrical Engineering and Computer Science subject|we'll develop our results from an LC circuit example. Classical LC Circuit Consider the undriven LC circuit shown in Fig. 1. As in Lecture 2, we shall take the state variables for this system to be the charge on its capacitor, q(t) Cv(t), and the flux through its inductor, p(t) Li(t). Furthermore, we'll consider≡ the behavior of this system for t 0 when one≡ or both of the initial state variables are non-zero, i.e., q(0) = 0 and/or≥p(0) = 0. You should already know that this circuit will then undergo simple6 harmonic motion,6 i.e., the energy stored in the circuit will slosh back and forth between being electrical (stored in the capacitor) and magnetic (stored in the inductor) as the voltage and current oscillate sinusoidally at the resonant frequency ! = 1=pLC. -
