2. 1 Motors use the effect of forces on current-carrying conductors in magnetic fields 2. 1. 1 The motor effect The motor effect is where a force acts on a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field. The right hand palm rule is used to find certain properties: fingers point to magnetic field, thumb points in…

Despite Nepal’s capacity to generate 83,000 Mega watts of electricity, making it the second largest country in the world in terms of power generation, the nation is currently grappling with a significant issue of power cuts. It is truly baffling that we are still plagued by this problem. Our power production currently stands at 600…

Series-Parallel Connection is besides known as the combined resistive circuits. This is the combination of series circuit and parallel circuit. Series circuit can be described as a circuit with merely one way for charges to travel along. This was besides the common circuit connexion in most rural countries. On the other manus. Parallel circuit can…

Thomas A. Edison earned his reputation as one of America’s greatest inventors and heroes. Full of innovation, ingenuity, and enterprise, Edison “embodie[d] much of what Americans have felt was positive about the national experience. ” Edison can put claim to 1093 US patents in addition to thousands more international patents. His works include such major…

Electricity is replacing other sources of energy like water, oil and coal, because it is comparably cheap, efficient and useful. Electricity supplies every kind of energy to man to improve his scientific inventions and increase his social amenities. From house-lighting to the running of giant factories, it is the invisible current that flows through the…

He was born on 27th April 1791 in Charlestown, Mass. To this day everyone thinks he was a scientist but he was an artist by profession.

1. How do smart grids differ from the current electricity infrastructure in the United States? A smart grid delivers electricity from suppliers to consumers using digital technology to • save energy • reduce costs • increase reliability and transparency Current electricity grids do not provide any information about how consumers actually use energy. Without useful…

Rationale of the study Almost everything these days is powered by electricity, and while this has certainly improved the quality of life, it has its downfalls as well. Some examples are: its effects on our Earth such as global warming, the rising bills caused by using too much electricity, and so much more. This is…

Experiment 5: RC Circuits Abstract The purpose of this lab is to learn and understand RC Circuits. An RC circuit is composed of at least one resistor and at least one capacitor. A capacitor is composed of two plates with either air or an insulator also known as a dielectric between the plates. We do…
