Linear Models
 The Models That Will Be Developed Have
“Nice” Mathematical Properties.
• In Particular They Will Be Linear Which Means
That They Satisfy The Principle Of
Superposition:
– Model:
y  T u 
– Principle of Superposition
 Given 1, 2, are CONSTANTS
y  T 1u1   2u2   1T u1    2T u2 

Sophisticated Math Tools
 This Course Applies the Tools Learned
in MTH1 & ENGR25 to Solve Complex
Physics/Math Circuit Models
• For The First Part We Will Be Expected To
Solve Systems Of Algebraic Equations
12V1  9V2  4V3  8
 4V1  16V2  V3  0
 2V1  4V2  6V3  20
– Watch for These in MTH-6

Example
 A Camcorder Battery Plate Claims That
The Unit Stores 2700 mAHr At 7.2V
• What Is The Total Charge And Energy Stored?
– Charge → The 2700 mAhr Specification Indicates
That The Unit Can Deliver 2700 mA for ONE Hour
