What happen when voltage across the pn junction increases?

If the potential across the junction is high enough, then it could cause it to conduct. This is with all diodes and is the forward voltage. If it is not high enough, it will just sit there and not conduct.


What could be the tendencies for the voltmeter if the voltages to be measured exceed the range?

You'd potentially damage the meter. Whether you do or not is immaterial; if the meter cannot measure the range of voltages you are expecting, it will not give accurate readings over that voltage range, thus you should not use it. Buy a different meter that will measure over that voltage range, or use a voltage divider circuit to get a lower voltage at a certain ratio of what is actually in the circuit (this may be difficult to do, or very simple depending on the circuit tested - the key is you do not want to load the circuit with the voltage divider network).


Where would you find digital to analog in the computer?

You would find a digital to analog conversion taking place when you have a monitor with a VGA connection plugged into the computer. The computer would then have to convert digital signals into analog signals so the monitor could comprehend the data it is given.


How to convert 5mv to 5v?

If the voltage is AC a transformer could be used. If the voltage is DC calculations could be made to apply the proper size resistor to the circuit so that it has a 3.7 volt voltage drop across it.


Diffrence between analog and digital computer?

An analog computer is any computer that represents its data in the form of continuously variable signals instead of the discontinuous encoded symbols used by digital computers.

When should you begin getting tested for cancer?

You could never be to young to get tested for cancer. Cancer can happen to anyone regardless of their age. If you feel you want to b sure you do not have cancer that runs in your family then go ahead and get tested for the cancer.


What the purpose of the diode rectifier used with a ac analog voltmeters?

The analog voltmeter uses a dial, which changes its position in accordance with applied voltage - however, this voltage must be DC in order for this to work (it's through either thermal or magnetic expansion). So, the AC must first be rectified into DC, before any measurement can take place. Of course, rectifying AC into DC does increase the voltage (as it must - this action multiplies the voltage value by the square root of two), so before the measurement can occur, this increase is properly sanitized by associated circuitry (for example, a voltage divider could be used).


What will happen if your cars voltage regulator is bad?

Either you won't get enough voltage, and the car will stop once your battery is discharged, or you'll get excessive voltage, and you could end up actually overloading the battery and causing it to rupture, starting a fire, etc.

How to control motor rpm?

For AC motor, you can change motor RPM by changing its supply voltage or by changing supply frequency. For DC motor, you can change motor speed by controlling armatyre voltage or field current.


Do you get tested for drugs the first time at the probation officer?

It could happen so don't be surprised. Just get honest if it will be positive. Don't say it will be clean when you know it will not.


How do you tell if a starter went bad on a 95 Tahoe?

If the starter does not turn then it could either be bad or not getting power. If a volt meter can not be used to determine that voltage is present, then the starter can be pulled and taken to be tested.


What is digital to analog?

A digital input (in the form of a number) is converted into analog format, which could be a voltage or a signal frequency, for example. An example, which most people would be familiar with, is your touch tone phone. When you press a key on the phone, that is a digital input. The output is actually 2 frequencies mixed together (analog signal). Each row of keys on your phone is associated with a frequency, and then each column of keys is associated with a frequency. The two frequencies combined represent the row and column of the key that was pressed. At the phone company, they use analog filters to determine what frequencies were generated by your phone, and from that, determine which key was pressed (this is Analog to Digital conversion).


What may happen if you accidentally select the 10 volt d c range on an analog meter when testing a single phase supply?

If by single phase, you mean 120/240 AC; it could blowup in your hand!
