Electrical Engineering: Principles & Applications, Global Edition
This is a summery of electrical circuits, in the context of engineering. It covers first year work and includes:
-voltage, current, resistance
-power
-ideal sources (independent and dependent)
-Ohm, Kirchhoff current and voltage law
-resistance, current, voltage in parallel and in series
-d...
