• B)should maintain the integrity of the process by following each step sequentially and thoroughly.
• C)often collect data before defining the research objectives.

Definitions:

R-L

Refers to a circuit that contains both resistance (R) and inductance (L), affecting the phase and amplitude of the circuit's response to an AC input.

Exponential Curves

Graphs representing exponential functions, showing how values can grow rapidly due to constant proportionality rates.

Time Constants

A parameter that quantifies the response time of a system to a step input, notably in RC and RL circuits, characterized by the time it takes for a system to change significantly.

Electromagnetic Induction

The phenomenon where an electromotive force (EMF) is induced in a closed circuit by a change in the flux of magnetic field.
