Definitions:

Time Constants

The time required for a system to change significantly from one state to another, often used in the context of charging and discharging in RC (Resistor-Capacitor) and RL (Resistor-Inductor) circuits.

Charge Curve

A graphical representation of the charge of a battery or capacitor over time, often showing how charge varies with charging or discharging processes.

Dielectric Constant

A method of determining the insulation properties of a dielectric using air as a reference.

Rated Value

Rated value indicates the maximum or nominal performance specification for which a device or component is designed, such as voltage, power, or temperature.
