CAPACITOR:
A capacitor is a passive element designed to store energy in its electric field. Besides resistors, capacitors are the most common electrical components. Capacitors are used extensively in electronics, communications, computers, and power systems. For example, they are used in the tuning circuits of radio receivers and as dynamic memory elements in computer systems.
In many practical applications, the plates may be aluminum foil while the dielectric may be air, ceramic, paper, or mica. When a voltage source v is connected to the capacitor, the source deposits a positive charge q on one plate and a negative charge -q on the other. The capacitor is said to store the electric charge.
INDUCTOR:
An inductor is a passive element designed to store energy in its
magnetic field. Inductors find numerous applications in electronic
and power systems. They are used in power supplies, transformers,
radios, TVs, radars, and electric motors.
Any conductor of electric current has inductive properties and may
be regarded as an inductor. But in order to enhance the inductive
effect, a practical inductor is usually formed into a cylindrical
coil with many turns of conducting wire.
RESISTOR:
A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that implements electrical resistance as a circuit element. In electronic circuits, resistors are used to reduce current flow, adjust signal levels, to divide voltages, bias active elements, and terminate transmission lines, among other uses.
Ohm’s Law:
states that the voltage v across a resistor is directly proportional to the current i flowing through the resistor.
KCL:
states that the algebraic sum of currents entering a node (or a closed boundary) is zero.
The sum of the currents entering a node is equal to the sum of the currents leaving the node.
KVL:
states that the algebraic sum of all voltages around a closed path(or loop) is zero.
Sum of voltage drops = Sum of voltage rises
