In 1919, the 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which prohibited the sale and manufacture of alcohol, was ratified. It went into effect on January 16, 1920âbeginning the era known as Prohibition.
Because time constant calculations are important, and often needed, it is better to make the definition of the time constant (T) in a CR circuit: THE TIME TAKEN FOR THE VOLTAGE ACROSS A CAPACITOR TO INCREASE BY 63.2% OF THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ITS PRESENT AND FINAL VALUES.
In phase means that the AC voltage and current vary together in time; when the voltage reaches its peak so does the current, and when the voltage is zero, so is the current. The instantaneous current is always proportional to the instantaneous voltage.
