Circuits

Overachieving and under-appreciated, circuits are the foundation that our technological society is built on. Now's your chance to find out not only how they work, but why. Questions regarding the physics behind voltage, resistance, capacitance, inductance, transistors, LEDs, switches, and power supplies; and how they're used to create analog and digital circuits, should be directed here.

Why transistor burns?

If inceres the base voltage of transistor them it may be burn . The base volt may be 0.8v to 1.8 If it use as a amplifier

How much electrical current is passed through an ammeter in a time of 6 seconds if the ammeter reads 1.8 amps?

1.8 amps of current passed through. I'm assuming you meant electrical charge however, in which case 1.8 A * 6 s = 10.8 C of charge passed through, where C stands for Coulombs. That is equivalent to roughly 6.74 X 1019 electrons passing through.

Can items in a series circuit be in any order?

Yes. The arrangement doesn't change the current through

the circuit, or the voltage acrosss any individual component.

How many outlets can be put on the 120 volt circuit if the outlets are rated at 120 va per outlet?

120 va on a 120 v socket means you can draw up to 1 amp from the socket. The number of outlets/sockets depends on the amp rating of the circuit. If it's 10 amps you can definitely have ten sockets and your local wiring regulations might allow more, on the basis that they won't all be used at once.

Can you give the circuit diagram of iron box?

It would be necessary to have detailed information describing the contents of the

box. It is not valid to assume a priori that any arbitrary iron box, such as one might

encounter in repose on the ground, must contain electronic components.

Can charge flow through ebonite rod?

No, ebonite is an insulator. Charges can reside on the surface but not flow through

Calculate the Power in watts dissipated by a resistor of 1000 ohms with 200 volts across it 2 watts 20 watts 40 watts 400 watts?

Ohms law states that

V = I * R

I = V/R

R = V/I

P = I*V

Where V = Voltage, I=Current, R = Resistance and P = Power or Watt Watt is the amount of electricity flowing through a line which is (Voltage times Current in (Amperage) = Power or watts) To find the power dissipated by a resistor of 1000 ohms, we first find the current I. The voltage is given as 200volts. Therefore I = V/R = 200/1000 = 0.2Amps We said Power or Watt = I*V Therefore the Power or watts dissipated by a resistor of 1000 ohms will be P=I*V = 200*0.2 = 40 Watts

What are the Conclusion of analog and digital multimeter?

The only different is one has a needle, the other digital numbers-same as with analog and digital watches.

What is the function of a 180K resistor in hobby kit?

All resistors have the same function in a hobby kit, to cause a voltage drop in series circuits or reduce currents in parallel circuits. A value of 180k ohms is just going to do that by a lot.

How do you make electrical circuits with 2 or more batteries?

There are 2 ways you can go You can hook them up in series or in parallel

If you hook them up in series That is you connect the positive side of the battery to the negative side of the next battery and so on you en up with the voltage being increased by the voltage of each battery So if you hook up a 12 volt battery to the end of a 6 volt battery you end up with 18 volts.

Or you can hook them up in parallel That is you hook the abaterys together on one side going from positive to positive and on the other side negative to negative When you do this you end up with the same voltage but increase the amperage.

What does a IC 555 do in a buzzer circuit?

The IC You speak of, commonly referred to as a 555, is a multivibrator. Simply put, it can be configured to produce voltage pulses in some order.

In the case of a buzzer circuit, it is used to vibrate with a certain frequency - this frequency is then driven to the speaker and is heard as the 'buzz'. And thus, it's a frequency source.

What is a cmos gate?

A CMOS gate is a logical switch used in electronics. CMOS stands for Complimentary Metal Oxide Silicon. These types of semiconductors have a very high input impedance, are very sensitive use low current and work over a larger range of voltage.

The alternative is TTL(Transistor to Transistor Logic) which work at 5volts only and draw higher currents.

A gate, is a switch that changes state (on/off) depending on the logic voltage levels applied to it's inputs.

What is the nature of an electric current?

IT IS A FORM OF ENERGY
===================


An electric current flows when electrons move from atom to atom in a conductor under the influence of an electromotive force, or most commonly emf.
Devices that can provide emf include voltaic cells, thermoelectric devices, solar cells, electrical generators, transformers, and even Van de Graaff generators.

If each lamp is rated 12v 24w what is the current consumed by each lamp?

2 amperes in a parallel circuit. I = W/V. It is true provided that 12v are delivered to the lamps in parallel circuit. In a series circuit, the voltage is divided among the lamps so that the total current is probably 2 amperes for all lamps.

What does a 555 astable circuit do?

i do not know what an astable circuit does thats why i aksed

What is symbol circuit?

A circuit symbol is a symbol that represents a component in a circuit. For example a light bulb is a circle with a cross in it.
