    Continuous Time Fourier in LTI system

    Homework Statement Homework Equations Not sure The Attempt at a Solution No idea how to even begin. I don't even know how to start this equation. My textbook has no examples of this type. Do I need to transform x(t)? If someone could simply steer me in the right direction...

    Nodal and Mesh Analysis Equations for Node Voltage & Mesh Current Methods

    That is the ground point that I set for it. I made this circuit in paint based on something I found in the book. I just wanted to do this problem for practice because it seemed difficult. Our book uses the black delta as ground.

    Nodal and Mesh Analysis Equations for Node Voltage & Mesh Current Methods

    Oh duh. Vr1 is just found by doing the regular node stuff the branch with r1. So that means the mesh equations are -30+V_is2+5i=0 20(i2-i1)+2(i2-i3-Vis2) = 0 (add the first two equations to cancel Vis2) 10i3+is4+2(i3-i2) = 0 10+20i4 = 0 is4 = 5(v1+10-30) Is that right?

    Nodal and Mesh Analysis Equations for Node Voltage & Mesh Current Methods

    I was trying to make the KVL equation like you said. But the Is2 is current so I have to multiply by a resistance to make it a voltage. I'm so confused right now. So my meshes are OK, it's just my constraint equation that I'm having trouble with? I am really trying to understand what...

    Nodal and Mesh Analysis Equations for Node Voltage & Mesh Current Methods

    so v1+10-30+5*i1+3(?)=0 Do I multiply by one since there's no resistor on that branch? v1+5i+3(?)=20

    Nodal and Mesh Analysis Equations for Node Voltage & Mesh Current Methods

    v2=v1+10 (v1+10-30)/5+v1/2-5(5*i1)=0 Is the current through the left branch equal to 3? So the second equation becomes (v1+10-30)/5+v1/2-75=0? Or is the current in the left branch equal to (v1+10)/5? or (v1+10)/5+3?

    Nodal and Mesh Analysis Equations for Node Voltage & Mesh Current Methods

    Still having trouble understanding the whole constraint thing, but this is what I've done. For the nodes v2=v1+10 (v1+10-30)/5-30=0 (v1)/2-5(5*i1)=0 For the meshes Is4=5(5*i1)

    Nodal and Mesh Analysis Equations for Node Voltage & Mesh Current Methods

    Ok I revised my node equations v2-v1=10 (v2-30)/5-3=0 v1/2-Is4=0 I'm not sure how to go about taking care of is4 in this case For the meshes, Everything ok was except mesh 3? This is what I got for the constraint: Is4=I2-I3. Thanks for the help !

    Faraday's Law help, not sure if I'm using the equations correctly.

    Homework Statement A coil 3.55 cm radius, containing 480 turns, is placed in a uniform magnetic field that varies with time according to B = (1.20e-2 T/S)t + (3.05e-5 T/s^{4} )t^{4}. The coil is connected to a 620 Ohm resistor, and its plane is perpendicular to the magnetic field. You can...

    Undergrad Confused about electric field/velocity/magnetic field vectors

    So E=vB and {E}={v}cross{B} but if I have for instance v=5j and B=-1k, then E is in the positive i direction. Shouldn't it be in the negative direction? Thanks.
