Formulae for time-lag are derived applicable to certain electrical networks, and to phenomena mathematically analogous to heat conduction, provided that the properties of the system do not vary with temperature or its analogue. The relation of the time-lag to the time-constants of exponential decay is discussed. Examples of the formulae are given.
