Analysis of Capacitors in DC Circuits
This lecture covers the time-dependence of capacitor charging processes, the application of Kirchhoff's Voltage Law to circuits with capacitors in parallel and series, setting up and solving differential equations, and understanding time-dependent characteristics of capacitors. Additionally, it explains how to analyze capacitors in parallel and series arrangements and apply this knowledge to capacitor banks. Towards the end, it delves into the definition of currents from moving charges, continuity equations, differences between conductors and metals, Ohm's law, Drude model, electromotive force, and Kirchhoff's laws for circuit analysis.
