In Capacitors: For Inductors:
Mechanical Analogy: Mass Spring System
Corresponds to:
LC circuits oscillate much in the same way a mass spring system oscillates
LC Circuit
Basic Equations:
Loop Equation:
Power Equation:
Conservation of Energy:
Solving the Loop Equation – Analogy to Mass-Spring System
Solution:
Comment:General Solution:
(δ is the initial phase angle of the oscillation)
Often set δ = 0, where at t = 0, the initial condition is chosen to be x = xmax
