7.7 OTHER TOPICS


The relationships in Figure 7.39 can be used to calculate the power and energy in a system. Notice that the power calculations focus on resistance, as resistances will dissipate power in the form of heat. Other devices, such as inductors and capacitors, store energy, but don't dissipate it.
