    I am so thankful to have found your channel. It’s been difficult to pick up heavy concepts like this being that I haven’t been in school for over 15 years. Your videos have helped me tremendously in such a short amount of time. Your videos cut all the fat out and get straight to it. Us engineering students appreciate you saving us some time. You’re amazing

    Thanks for sharing these tutorials with us! I'm greatly appreciative.
    I have a small observation, though.
    KVL is E=IR, NOT V=IR!
    E, as I'm sure you know, is the symbol for electromotive force, whereas V is the symbol of Voltage, a unit of measurement for electromotive force...
    So, it would be either E=IR or Volts=Amperage x Ohms

    So the bigger the capacitance the more capacitor can store electric charge, so does that means the bigger capacitance the more capacitor can store energy and the longer times capacitor can supply energy??

    • @stepbystepscience
      @stepbystepscience  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, bigger means that can store more energy and charge. Size does not effect how long it can store the charge, should be able to hold the charge for ever. Time often depends on the size of the resistor the charge has to go through, with no resistor it will discharge immediately.

    does that mean that a circuit with a battery of 1 Volt in which there is a capacitor with a capacitance of 1 Farad will store 1 Cb of charge (both plates considered I presume)? So there will be half a Cb of charge on the negative plate and half a Cb of charge on the positive one ?

    A good video would be: '' when to use a capacitor and why? '' another good video that I still didn't find is; '' how to chose a transistor, how to apply it functionalities and how to find its value '' I know that buying hobbyists' electronic kits are a really good way too, but I costs a few quids and accumulate objects all around, specially when you are student and move home every two years or so :D

    The 2 C's you put up there. Do both of them have the same symbol or something?

    • @stepbystepscience
      @stepbystepscience  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      I am not exactly sure what you mean but….C is the symbol we use for capacitance in the equation Q = C x V. In explaining that 1 Farad is 1 C per V the C is the abbreviation for the unit Coulomb…it can be a little confusing. Does that help?

    • @kafge7798
