In the late 1880’s Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison battled over what type of electricity {Alternating Current or Direct Current} would become standard in the United States (Nix). People today take electricity for granted‚ but during this time period people were just beginning to dawn the idea of having electricity in households. The vast majority of people had to utilize more dangerous types of electricity such as gas lamps. Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison both invented a type of electricity and the

Radio Frequency has different types of properties but ones that are most important are the radiation of electromagnetic waves cause by the energy in a RF current. Usually an electromagnetic wave is the main base of what is known to be Radio Technology. RF can be found emitting around conductors of electrical currents‚ they are usually not found within the conductors themselves but usually

Nikola Tesla is not very well known for most of his inventions‚ even though most modern people use them everyday without even knowing. The world would be different without Nikola Tesla‚ because had Tesla not invented the Alternating Current motor‚ Thomas Edison would have successfully developed and sold his Direct Current motor. In order for direct current to be used‚ a power source must be within

Batteries‚ Resistance and Current “Battery-Resistor”: Check “show battery” and “show cores”‚ watch what happens‚ adjust some variables 1. Why do electrons (blue dots) move? Draw a diagram of the battery‚ label the flow of electrons. The flow of current (+) is opposite; draw this and note if toward or away from + terminal of the battery. The blue dots indicating the electrons move because there is a voltage across the battery in which the electrons flow away from the positive terminal

that Kirchhoff introduced was his current law. Kirchhoff’s Current Law (KCL) states that the total current entering a junction must equal the total current leaving the junction. These laws‚ however‚ cannot be proven or tested without the aid of a multimeter. A multimeter is an instrument designed to measure electric current‚ voltage‚ and usually resistance‚ typically over several ranges of value. The multimeter has different programs to measure voltage‚ current‚ resistance‚ etc. produced from one

AT105 8 December 2006 "Ohm’s Law is the relationship among electric current‚ resistance‚ and voltage. The principle is named after the German scientist George Simon Ohm." Webster’s Online Dictionary. I will be discussing the uses of Ohm’s Law and why it is so important in everyday electrical problems whether it be simple or not. It is everywhere and used by many whether they notice it or not. Ohms law states that current in amperes is equal to voltage divided by resistance. This form of ohms

Electrical Interview questions Electrical interview question: What is electric traction? Answer: Traction means using the electric power for traction system i.e. for railways‚ trams‚ trolleys etc. electric traction means use of the electricity for all these. Now a day‚ magnetic traction is also used for bullet trains. Basically dc motors are used for electric traction systems. Electrical interview question: How can you start-up the 40w tube lite with 230v AC/DC without using any choke/Coil
