Day 24

Today we reviewed Inductor and its parameters, went over average and maximum power calculation within AC circuits, and saw a demonstration to see how RMS values dictate maximum power of AC circuits.

Above is an are the equations for average power in the frequency domain. In blue we calculated how many turns it would take to make a 1H inductor.

Above we did an example of average power transfer in the frequency domain.

Next we derived max power transfer in the frequency domain.

Above we did an example on finding the thevinin equivalent impedance to find max power.

Above we have a DC source on the right and AC on the left so we see that it would take about twice the voltage of AC to produce the same brightness as DC. Due to rms currents.
