The time for one oscillation is the period T and the number of oscillations per unit time is the frequency f. These quantities are related by (f = frac{1}{T}). Simple harmonic motion (SHM) …
Damped Oscillation
The angular frequency of the damped oscillation is different from the frequency of the undamped oscillation. The damped frequency is lower, leading to a change in the …

The voltage across a capacitor is V C = q/C, and the current through it is i = dq/dt. For an inductor, the voltage is V L = L(di/dt). For a capacitor, then, the voltage is the integral of the current, while for an inductor it is the derivative of the current.
