Hi Jim, Very simplified version: Energy is stored in the cap (potential). It flows to the coil (kinetic). Energy is now stored in the magnetic field of the coil (potential). It flows back to the cap (kinetic). Energy is stored in the cap (potential). etc.etc.etc. Matt D -----Original Message----- From: Jim <electrical@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: Tesla Coil Mailing List <tesla@xxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Fri, Apr 25, 2014 7:58 am Subject: [TCML] LC Circuit I've heard of LC circuits being compared to pendulums. Is there kinetic and potential energy involved? If so, which is kinetic, the Inductor?
