1 Your omments THIS IS SOOOO HAD. I get the concept and mathematical expression. But I do not get links among everything. ery confusing prelecture especially what happens when switches are closed/opened and what happens during long periods of time. My brain just fell on the ground. Please help me pick it back up. It's been a while since I have been this lost after watching a prelecture. I cannot visualize these concepts as well. I understood what was used in the questions, but are the differential equations that they used going to be on exams? They were derived very quickly and if they're very important I would like to go over them a little more. This lecture was not too bad. My only concern is for the challenging circuits I am sure will appear on the homework. I would like to do more problems like the those in class if that's possible. It is difficult relating all these relationships together. Also I'm having trouble determining when something is being charged and when it is being discharged.
