Is led a voltage controller or current controller?
An LED is a diode that emits light; diodes allow current to flow only one direction. The voltage applied to the diode attempts to force current to flow in a specific direction. If the voltage polarity is reversed, and current was flowing before (so there was a small voltage drop across the diode), current will cease to flow (assuming the voltage is not too high for the diode to handle), and (almost) all the voltage will be dropped across the diode (a small leakage current may flow, which means some of the voltage will not be dropped across the diode, but this is in the milli or micro range). I would never define a diode as a "voltage controller" or "current controller". It could be either or both, from the above description.
What is the power factor of a DC system?
It would be unity, or 1.0. Since the voltage in a DC circuit does not vary with time, there can be no phase displacement of the current waveform, and therefore the current could not lead or lag the voltage waveform.
How can you detect a direct current flowing thugh a wire?
you need to test it with a multi meter, set on the right settings. if you knew the voltage you could get an appropriate light bulb to suit the voltage and put that across the wire to test if there is current.
What has more power 2 amps or 7.2 volts?
Impossible to answer 2 amps could carry a lot of power if the voltage is high, and 7.2 volts could carry a lot of power if the current is high.
What size of wire needed for 220volt?
Wire is not sized by voltage. It is sized by current measured in amps. Some common copper wire sizes and their current capacities are: 15 amps -- 14 gauge wire 20 amps -- 12 gauge wire 30 amps -- 10 gauge wire 40 amps -- 8 gauge wire
How could a capacitor have voltage but no current?
Voltage and current are two different things. Voltage is potential energy per charge, in joules per coulomb, while current is charge transfer rate, in coulombs per second. Its that same as saying that a battery has voltage but no current, because there is no load. Well, a capacitor resists a change in voltage by requiring a current to change the voltage. Once that voltage is achieved, there is infinite resistance to the voltage, and thus no current.
Will any 12v battery charge work?
According to the magnitude of said current will be the time needed for charging. For there to be a current flow to the battery, the charger must provide a voltage (voltage) higher than the battery, this is the reason why we can not charge a 12V battery from another. Or at least, could not, as we shall see later.
What is the cable size of 1600kVA transformer?
Cable size is determined by current. You did not provide the current, nor did you include the voltage so that we could calculate the current. Please restate the question, and include either the current or the voltage.
How you increase current by keeping voltage constant?
If you are referring to a simple circuit, you could add resistance throughout it. Increased resistance means decreased current flow yet the same voltage.
What size cable needed too run 20kva 320 meters?
I'd need to know the operating voltage, because if the operating current is high and the voltage is low, then you would need rather thick wire. If you are using a high voltage application, Wiring could be brought down a bit. Let me know!
How much voltage is needed to hurt or kill people?
It is the path of the electric current through the body that will kill, not exactly the voltage. If the electricity go through the heart, it will have a higher chance of killing that person. Generally 100-300 voltage can shock the heart to defrillation. Higher voltage will probably stop the heart, and the heart could be burnt from the high voltage too. If the body is NOT earthed, the body could probably survive.
What is rms value in ac system?
The r.m.s. value of an alternating current or voltage is the value of direct current or voltage which produces the same heating effect.
How can convert voltage source into current source?
Take the internal series resistance of the voltage source and make it the internal parallel resistance of the current source. Then compute using Ohm's law the current of the current source to be equal to the maximum current the original voltage source could supply a short circuit load. Note: the two sources are equivalent.
Does a resister use current?
It may be better to say that a resistor allows current flow through itself rather than to say that a resistor is a device that will "use" current. It does "resist" current flow, and thus limits it to some degree depending on its resistance. (More resistance means more limiting of current flow.) The resistor "drops voltage" as well limits current. A resistor "feels voltage" from some source, and the voltage it "feels" is said to be the "voltage drop" of the resistor. The voltage drop is the voltage that could be measured across that resistor with a meter.
How could you calculate the resistance of a circuit?
A variety of techniques can be used. Node-Voltage and Mesh-current (or Loop-current) methods, for example. See related link for examples. If there is a single voltage source in the model, then find the current supplied, and Resistance = Voltage/Current. {R = V/I} You could simulate/ model the circuit on a computer then apply the power profile and a current value will be calculated. Or if you have the circuit working, Place an amp meter into the circuit and measure the current. V/i = resistance.

Is DC voltage and average voltage same?
no, dc volatage is a type of current direct current, ac is alternating current, average voltage could be any type of voltage ac or dc that maintains a constant rangeAnswerNo. A DC voltage is exactly equivalent to an AC rms-voltage. So, for example, 100 V (DC) is exactly equivalent to 100 V (AC rms). The average value of an AC waveform is zero.
