Assume V_s(t) is equal to 3u(t). Find v(t) as a function of time and find the capacitances of the two capacitors. Assume all initial conditions are 0.

First thing to address is what is D.C. Steady State. Basically, all that means is that the circuit has been active/running for a long time. For power dissipating elements like resistors, this doesn’t mean much, but for energy storing elements such as inductors and capacitors it changes how they behave.

Recursion occurs when a function calls itself. Recursion is useful when dealing with problems that have recursive properties. Consider a function factorial(n) that returns the factorial of n. This function can be defined recursively because factorial(5) = 5 * factorial(4) = 5 * 4 * factorial(3) and so on.

Floating point numbers are used to represent real numbers in computers. Because real numbers can have many digits, we use scientific notation to represent them in binary.

Stack is a data structure that follows the property of First In Last Out (FILO). So the first element inserted into a stack will be the last element deleted from the stack. You can think of a stack as a stack of dishes. The first dish that goes into the stack will be the last one to be used.

A lot of people seem to freak out when they see an i in math or j in electrical engineering. So hopefully this will help. The first thing we want to go over is what i and j even are.

The problem is: Given N pairs of parentheses, write a function to generate all combinations of well-formed parentheses. The naive solution is to generate all combinations of N pairs of parentheses, then checking if each one is valid.

Now, if you change main.c, factorial.c, or factorial.h, you would need to re-compile those files manually. This is a cumbersome process, especially when the number of files is big. The solution is to automate the compilation process by using Makefile.

At first glance, there seems to be a lot going on in a two-phase diagram. There are temperatures, percentages, different elements, and symbols you’re not used to seeing. But once you understand what you’re looking for, everything makes sense.

Compute the complex exponential fourier series coefficient for… So what is an exponential Fourier series, and why do we use it? The Fourier series is a way to change a signal x(t) from the time domain to the frequency domain X(w)--where w stands for omega--using an infinite series as an approximation.

Calculate the output of this system given that the input signal and the system’s impulse response are… One thing that should be addressed before we start the problem is what is u(t). u(t) is the step function, or Heaviside step function. It stands for…

It’s Quiz Time!  Close your notes, clear your desks, and answer the following question: What does the following graph depict? A friend of mine said: “it’s an exothermic reaction!”  And to that, I said, “Incorrect!”.
