Definitions:

RC Parallel Circuit

A circuit configuration consisting of a resistor (R) and a capacitor (C) connected in parallel, often used in electrical networks to filter or time-delay signals.

R

Represents the symbol for resistance in electrical circuits, measuring how much an object opposes the passage of electrons.
