Rolling resistance force The rolling resistance force occurs due to the friction between the tires and the driving surface. The rolling resistance force is zero at standstill. When the vehicle starts moving, the rolling resistance force acts in the direction opposite to the direction of motion and can be calculated…

Week 8 Challenge
Unlike the resistor, which dissipates energy in the form of heat, the ideal capacitor does not loose its energy. We have also seen that the simplest form of a capacitor is two parallel conducting metal plates which are separated by an insulating material, such as air, mica, paper, ceramic, etc, and called the dielectric…
