We have learnt , how to obtain the initial conditions for the circuit variables and their derivatives, as this is crucial to analyze second order circuits. Perhaps the major problem students face in handling second-order circuits is finding the initial and final conditions on circuit variables. Students are usually comfortable getting the initial and final values of v and i but often have difficulty finding the initial values of their derivatives: dv/dt and di/dt . | Lecture Electric circuits analysis - Lecture 30 The source-free series RLC circuit
