Publisher's Synopsis
A remarkably accessible approach … Numerous design problem types … MATLAB examples … A real–world emphasis on the circuits that we encounter everyday … These are just a few reasons why Dorf and Svoboda’s INTRODUCTION TO ELECTRIC CIRCUITS has been so successful at helping students master electric circuits and build strong problem–solving skills. Here’s one more—Electric Circuit Study Applets!
The Electric Circuit Study Applets feature hundreds of Web–based problems organized into numerous problem sets. These Applets are available FREE at www.wiley.com/college/dorf with the registration code included in the front of this text. It’s like getting a free, online study guide! Numerous call–outs throughout the text direct you to Applets that apply to the topic being studied.
With these Applets you can:
- Practice on countless problems: A random number generator changes the values of resistances, capacitances, and other circuit parameters, so you can challenge yourself with a seemingly endless array of problems.
- Get immediate feedback: As you work through the problems, t he Applets instantly check your answers.
- Examine detailed Worked Examples: Simply press the Worked Examples button and the program shows you how to solve similar problems step–by–step. The entire set of Worked Examples is also available for download as a .pdf file for your convenience.
- Assess your understanding of key concepts: Each set of problems covers a particular set of circuit analysis topics, allowing you to track your progress.
- Make calculations while online: Simply click on the button for the pop–up calculator.
Together the Applets and Worked Examples are the next step in providing an integrated, self–paced learning environment. They take circuit analysis study into a modern framework.
