Inductance and capacitance

A common inductor found in fluorescent light fixtures is a

Ballast

Total parallel capacitance

CT= C1+C2+C3

The apparent resistance to ac by a capacitor is called

Capacitive resistance

One of the effects a capacitor has in a DC circuit is that it will

Charge to a voltage equal to the source voltage

The energy stored by a capacitor is called an

Electrostatic charge

Capacitance is measured in

Farads

In a power supply that converts an ac input to generate a dc output, a capacitor is commonly used to

Filter the rectifiers pulsating dc output

Inductance is measured in

Henrys

Affects a DC circuit only when the current is first turned on, turned off, or when there is a change in the load resistance

Inductance

The resistance provided by an inductor in an AC circuit is called

Inductive reactance

A coil that opposes any change in current flow is called an

Inductor

Total series inductance formula

LT= L1+L2+L3

Which is not an example of an electromagnetic device

Resistor

A time delay relay that uses an RC timing circuit is called an

Solid state time delay relay

Total series capacitive reactance formula

XCT= XC1+XC2+XC3

Total parallel inductive resistance

XLT=1/[(1/XL1)+(1/XL2)+(1/XL3)]

*The concept of a magnetic field being formed around a conductor when current flows through it is called:

electromagnetism
