Ok, thank you, that helps with understanding that draw implies consumption. One other question... So, I know that VA is the unit for apparent power, and VA is also the unit for complex power. For 8kVA, there's no explained distinction whether its apparent or complex power. Since there are no...

Homework Statement I need clarification of how something is worded in my homework description. I have two impedance loads; one of them dissipates 5kW of power, which I understand to be positive power. Then, I have a second impedance load that draws 8kVA of power. Does the term "draw" specify...

Yup, it's a DC voltage source Ok that makes sense! I was thinking that would work, but i was not sure... thank you so much!

Well, the inductor would act as a short circuit, and the capacitor would act as an open circuit So i think the entire circuit would just open and as t→∞ the current is 0...

Homework Statement I am not sure how an Inductor behaves in an RLC Series Circuit Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution I know that after a long time, that the circuit above, the voltage in the capacitor is max. Generally, I also know that the current through an inductor after a...

Thank you! I thought so also...based on the tan shell, but I didn't know if shell color was the defining characteristic. Thank you!

I am taking an intro electrical circuits course which requires that I write extensive lab reports. I just completed a really simple lab about calculating resistance when configured in series and parallel, etc. In my intro I'm writing a short explanation about resistance, and resistors, and...
