Transmission energy loss is mainly (but not solely) resistive. The resistive loss is I squared times R where I is the current in amperes and R is the loop resistance in ohms. So to minimize loss, we want to minimize loop resistance and minimize current. To minimize current for any required amount of power, we must maximize voltage. This is why very high voltages are used to transmit electricity over long distances. To minimize resistance we must use more copper (assuming copper wires - the traditional wire material). This increases initial cost for the larger diameter wire and the heftier towers to carry the additional wire weight.
In summary, raise voltage to lower current and raise wire diameter to lower resistance.
Commercial power use is so large that reactive losses must be included. Reactive current may not show up as power in the reactive components, but the reactive current suffers the same I squared R losses that resistive current suffers. Reactive current is due to both load reactance and transmission line reactance.
Electrical energy can by converted to Mechanical energy (motion) by electric motors, and also electrical heaters change electrical energy into heat.
the five fundamental quantities are : length time electric current temperature mass
Vector quantities are quantities that have directionality as well as magnitude. Displacement (meters North) vs Distance (meters) Velocity (meters per second North) vs Speed (meters per second)
Electric force is the force applied on 2 electric charges, by those 2 electric charges.
Mass, length, time, temperature, and electric current.
Electric current Electromotive force or voltage Resistance that's all ^^
The benefits of using solar electrical power over conventional electric power is that it is renewable, it can save money on conventional electrical bills, and if used in large enough quantities it can even eliminate the need for energy from energy companies.
A voltammeter is a type of scientific instrument used for measuring electrical quantities. These are measured in two SI units: the electric potential (volt) and the electricity's quantity (coulomb).
An electrical dipole is a couple of two electrical charges identical in amplitude but opposite in sign, say +q and -q (q>0), separated by a distance d.
Pronunciation. An electrical circuit is the exact same as the electric system.
"Electricity" is not a quantity at all. Here are some quantities associated with electricity. Those that are vectors are marked 'V'. -- electromotive force (potential difference; voltage) . . . 'V' (plus or minus only) -- electric current (Amperage) . . . 'V' (plus or minus only) -- resistance -- electrical potential -- magnetic field . . . V -- gradient of electric potential . . . V -- electrical power -- electrical energy
Electric current is defined as the movement of electrical charges.
Electrical energy can by converted to Mechanical energy (motion) by electric motors, and also electrical heaters change electrical energy into heat.
