Place to learn circuits 2? ac circuits class

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on finding resources for learning about AC circuit theory, specifically regarding lead and lag calculations, and Norton and Thevenin equivalents. A user is seeking free educational materials due to budget constraints for textbooks. AllAboutCircuits.com is recommended as a valuable resource, although it follows the electron direction convention for current flow. The importance of understanding electron flow in circuit analysis is also highlighted. Overall, the thread emphasizes the need for accessible learning tools in electrical engineering.

im taking circuit theory 2, which is all about ac circuits, but don't have enough money for a book
need a place to learn about how to calculate lead and lag based on the inductance and capacitance, nortons and thevinans and all that stuff but in the context of sinusoidal currents and voltages
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
tyvm! don't know why that didnt show up on google
 
Take note that AllAboutCircuits uses the electron direction convention for current flow.

Thread 'Underwater piezoelectric sensor array receive sensitivity'

Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...

Thread 'Following up on the recent thread about Earth Resistance measurements'

I have recently moved into a new (rather ancient) house and had a few trips of my Residual Current breaker. I dug out my old Socket tester which tell me the three pins are correct. But then the Red warning light tells me my socket(s) fail the loop test. I never had this before but my last house had an overhead supply with no Earth from the company. The tester said "get this checked" and the man said the (high but not ridiculous) earth resistance was acceptable. I stuck a new copper earth...

Thread 'Beauty of old electrical and measuring things, etc.'

Even as a kid, I saw beauty in old devices. That made me want to understand how they worked. I had lots of old things that I keep and now reviving. Old things need to work to see the beauty. Here's what I've done so far. Two views of the gadgets shelves and my small work space: Here's a close up look at the meters, gauges and other measuring things: This is what I think of as surface-mount electrical components and wiring. The components are very old and shows how...
