How you convert a power supply into 12v DC?

DC 12V power supply can convert 110/220V AC power source to 12V DC.


If Four 12 voltsbatteries connected in parallel and one 12 volt battery in series how much voltage is active across circuit?

A == B (- 12V +) (- 12V +) (- 12V +) A single 12V battery in series with 4x 12V batteries connected in parallel... Total voltage from A to B is 24 volts! Note that the single battery in series will limit the total current capacity to that of a single battery.


What is output voltage of 12v 5watt solar panel?

The output voltage of 12V 5W solar panel is 12V. The current is 0,41667A. These values are normaly calculated with 1000W/m2 of solar radiation.


Difference between inverter and pwm control?

One invert the function or a signal. the other is a pulse width modulator controller which are usually used to convert one source of power to another. As in 12v dc in 5v dc out or vice versa


What does the resistance in an electrical circuit limit?

Current flow. It's also worthy of noting that a resistor doesn't limit-by, it limits-to, and the current is dependent on the voltage. I[A] = U[V] / R[ohm] It's also worth to note, that the power flowing through said resistor with resistance R is I[A] * U[V] for DC circuits - helps to remember this well when picking appropriately-rated resistors for replacement. Example: let's say we have a 20-ohm, 2W resistor. If we place it in a circuit with 5V, we will get 5V / 20ohm = 250mA (0.25A) of current flowing through the resistor. The power the resistor will "see" is 250mA * 5V = 1.25W, so it's safe. But let's now put that same resistor in a 12V circuit. The current flowing will be 12V / 20ohm = 600mA (0.6A), and the power will be 600mA * 12V = 7.2W, so the resistor will burn.

How do you convert 24volts to 12 volts?

If you want to convert 24v AC into 12v Ac, it's simple. Just get a transformer to convert 24 volts into 12 volts. This is called a stepdown transformer. If you want to convert 24v DC into 12v DC, it's more complicated. First you have to change the 24v DC into 24v AC by a switching converter that changes DC into AC. Then you would use a stepdown transformer as in the former example. Once the 24v AC is converted to 12v AC, then you use a rectifier bridge to change the 12v AC into 12v DC.

When a 12 V battery is connected across an unknown resister there is a current of 2.5 mA in the circuit find the value of the resistance of the resistor?

Resistance = voltage / current = 12V / 2.5mA = 12V / (2.5 x 10-3 A) = 4.8 x 103 ohm


If a 12V device is dissipating 50W how much load resistance does the device represent?

P = V x I I = 50 / 12 I = 4.17 R = 50 / (4.17*4.17) = ~2.88
