Detail Page

written by Andrew Duffy
This web page is an interactive physics simulation on alternating current circuits.  A circuit with a resistor, inductor, capacitor, and AC source is shown, and the user can see how the voltages across them change as the frequency of the AC generator changes.  This item is part of a larger collection of introductory physics simulations developed by the author.







This is part of a collection of similar simulation-based student activities.

Please note that this resource requires Java.
