power

Electronic components; Capacitors

The time rate at which work is done; equal to W/t where W is amount of work done in time t. Power will be obtained in watts if W is expressed in joules and t in seconds.

power factor

Electronic components; Capacitors

Measurement of the relationship between the AC source voltage and current. Formula: Power Factor equals Watts input divided by the product of Line Volts multiplied by Line Amps.

pressure

Electronic components; Capacitors

Force measured per unit area. Absolute pressure is measured with respect to zero pressure. Gauge pressure is measured with respect to atmospheric pressure.

proton

Electronic components; Capacitors

A positively charged particle believed to be a nuclear constituent of all atoms.

radio frequency interference (RFI)

Electronic components; Capacitors

Form of electromagnetic interference that can be radiated through the air.

relative humidity

Electronic components; Capacitors

Ratio of the quantity of water vapor present in the air to the quantity which would saturate it at any given temperature.

resin

Electronic components; Capacitors

An organic substance of natural or synthetic origin characterized by being polymeric in structure and predominately amorphous. Most resins, though not all, are of high molecular ...
