Explore how brightness changes in a circuit with two bulbs and a capacitor in this hands-on physics tutorial! Learn how capacitors affect current flow, energy distribution, and bulb luminosity through ...

How do those defibrillators you see on TV actually work? Surprise! Physics can explain! So, how do those defibrillators you see on TV actually work? Surprise! Physics can explain! Okay buckle up, ...

Our last go-round inside a DC circuit! We’ll encounter junctions, loops, and capacitors! What happens when there are MULTIPLE batteries, connected in ‘parallel’? And what happens when we add ...

Of course, we all know that capacitors are conceptually two conductors separated by a dielectric of some sort. But outside of air-variable capacitors you normally don’t see them looking like that. For ...

If you are like [The Science Asylum], you might wonder how a capacitor can work since, at their core, they are nothing more than a gap filled with air or another insulator. He explains how in a recent ...

The capacitor is one of the most important electrical components, and we’ll learn how it works in this second part of the basic electronics course for kids. It will be explored in terms of energy ...

Every year lakhs of students appear in the Joint entrance examination. 12 lakh students appear in JEE Main 2017. This number is increasing each year and with it the competition is also increasing. To ...

A large capacitor is charged by a 6 V battery or a 15 V DC power supply. When a copper rod is shorted across the terminals of the capacitor, a large spark is produced. The spark is obviously more ...

Dielectrics are of two types: (i) Non-Polar Dielectrics: When the centre of positive charge coincides with the centre of negative charge in a molecule, e.g., Nitrogen, Oxygen, CO 2 etc. (ii) Polar ...
