How do you use a soldering iron?
To use a soldering iron, you must have a piece of solder, something to cool it down, eg a damp sponge and a mains plug socket.
You must plug in the soldering iron and push the switch. Then, you must take your piece of solder, and with the soldering iron in one hand (Preferably your strongest hand) and your piece of solder in the other, you need to heat the tip of the soldering iron by feeding your piece of solder through the curved part of the soldering iron. This will melt the tip of the solder, and once you have melted about 5 millimetres, you are ready to go.
You need to use your piece of solder to feed through the soldering iron once again, but this time, the melted solder (the gooy gray stuff) that comes out needs to be applied to the two pieces of metal you want to solder together. Once you have used about 2 centimetres of solder, the melted solder will have hopefully made a mountain shape that curves around the two pieces. Solder freezes VERY quickly so you only have to leave it for about 5-10 seconds, then give it a firm pull, and it should remain intact.
ANSWER: The sponge is not to cool it down but rather to clean the tip from operation to operation. To begin with apply solder to the tip to tin it. Always use the right iron for the job. The idea is to melt the solder and make a good connection without heating and destroying the part. A good solder connection is a shiny connection. The application of solder flux will help the solder to flow and displace material present. There is no time limit or set time if it takes too long you got the wrong iron needs more heat in that case or a clean tip.
Why do synchronous motors have reactance grounding but synch alternators have resistance grounding?
remember the power flow equation
Pm-Pe = Pa(accelerating Power) = 2H/Ws ddelta/dt
1. synchronous generator resistance grounding -
when system suffer any kind of the disturbance which results in Pa accelerating power increases due to increase in Pe electrical power.to keep the balance between Pe and Pm, we reduce the increase amount of Pe electrical power by dissipated in the resister. from above equation we can easily make understand the Pm= Pe (in stability condition)
2. synchronous motor inductance grounding -
Reverse explanation in case of motor

8086 main application is to evaluate the arithmetic operations in any systems that uses 8086
Can you use a 120V to 240V step up transformer for an electric range?
(110V outlets and 120V outlets are practically the same for this discussion. I will refer to them as 120V. Same with 220V/240V outlets.) For your 120V source I assume you plan to use a standard US 120V 15A outlet. This outlet can provide a maximum of 15A at 120V. This means the outlet can provide 1,800W of power. ( Volts x Amps = Watts ) This is the maximum amount of power this outlet can provide, no more. Also, this is assuming nothing else is drawing power off the circuit this outlet is on. If you try to pull 1800W from an outlet and plug anything else into this circuit, the breaker will blow. Your oven is designed to run off a 50A 240V circuit. Let's say, for argument, it draws 40A at 240V. This means your appliance requires 9,600W of power to run correctly. This is over 5.3 times the absolute maximum amount of power your 120V outlet can provide. There is no way you can run this appliance off this outlet. You have a larger problem here than the voltage difference. Probably not advisable. One of the way transformers are rated is by the maximum wattage the transformer can safely accommodate. Electric ranges (or any appliance used to heat or cool) consume much more energy and require a much higher wattage rating than most other appliances. Unless you know the wattage rating of your transformer and are certain it can safely provide for your electric range, you should NOT use a step-up transformer with your range. Bear in mind that the wattage requirement for any electric range may vary greatly from model to model and varies even more with the demand placed on the range. For example, wattage required by one burner set to 'low' is much less than the same burner set on 'high'. Even more current and wattage is required to run 2 burners, 3 burners, etc... As you can see, there are many variables. The safest situation would assume that the range will always operate at it's maximum capacity (i.e. All burners on and set to high, cooling fans set to their highest level, any light bulbs on, both upper and lower oven heating elements turned on if applicable, any other accessories turned on and operating at their highest setting) and therefore should have a transformer at least 20% higher in capacity than the range at maximum consumption. The maximum wattage rating of the range should be printed on the manufacturers label, the Underwriters Laboratories(UL) label, or in the product installation/owner's manual. If wattage is not specifically given then use this formula to calculate wattage: Watts= Volts x Amps. I think a good question to ask yourself before doing this is, "Am I cool with my entire house burning down?" If your answer is, "No." then you probably need to pay an electrician to run a proper 220/240v line. A modern oven/range combination can easily consume 12,000-15,000 watts. As a comparison, a large hair dryer can consume as much as 2,000 watts. A 15,000 watt step-up transformer easily costs over a thousand bucks. So, unless you happen to have one lying around it's probably cheaper to hire the electrician anyway. One last tip: If the transformer doesn't weigh over 100 pounds, don't even think about it. Transformers are heavy. The bigger, the heavier. Here's a good website: http://www.voltageconverters.com/commercial_transformers.html

Can a current transformer be used as a voltage transformer?
Current Transformers cannot be used as a voltage transformers, they are used to measure large electrical currents. They are manufactured in the shape of a dough nut, round with a single hole in the middle. The conductor carrying the current passes thru this hole. the CT has two terminals, these would be connected to a ammeter or can be shorted together. When they are shorted together you can use a standard clamp on ammeter by passing the wire shorting the CT terminals together thru the meter jaws. The CT is sized by ratio of turns for the current is measuring, standard ratios of 200 to 5 or 500 to 5 .So if you were meassuring a current of 200 amps, your clamp on meter would read 5amps. A panel ammeter would be set up to display the amps as 200 amps. Current transformers, when installed should always have their ouput termianls shorted together or attached to an ammeter, to do so otherwise will damage the CT.
No. A transformer is simply windings on a core, and simply changes the voltage of a signal. It doesn't add power, so as the voltage goes up, the amperage goes down, maintaining constant power (minus losses).
In my mind, an amplifier adds power.
Volt (V) = Resistance (R) times Current (I)
therefor
R = V / I
30 Ω = 3V / 0.1A
What is non inverting amplifier?
The amplifier whose output is inphase with it input means if we consider voltage amplification then there is zero phase shift in input and output
What is factored load and Service load?
Basically, service loads are those applied loads which have not yet been factored. Also known as "working loads"
These are Electronic Design Automation tools. These tools are used to design and implement electronic circuits virtually using a computer. Programming languages like VHDL, Verilog can be used for this purpose.
What happens if a large current is forced through a high resistance wire?
A large amount of energy, calculated as the voltage difference across the wire, will be expended in that section of wire. This would most likely cause it to glow and/or create a lot of heat, which could possibly melt the wire and break the circuit (this is the principle any fuse is based on - a fuse is a low resistance wire that has a low melting temperature, so a "large" current will cause the fuse to heat excessively, melting the conductor).
A light bulb is exactly this - a "high resistance" wire (or filament), where relatively large current is pushed through a very small cross section of wire, causing it to glow.
How much are 5400 milli ampere hour to make in ampere hour?
There is a thousand milliamps in an amp. So it would be 5.4AH.
"Volts" is electrical pressure applied to a circuit; whereas, "ohms" is electrical resistance to that pressure. One cannot determine ohms from voltage without knowing either the current (in "amps") or power (in "watts"). A normal 120V household circuit can handle a maximum of 20 amps, so using ohm's law of resistance = voltage / current, the minimum resistance required in a 120V household circuit would be 6 ohms. Any less than 6 ohms will cause the circuit breaker to trip.
Your question is vague, but I will try to answer it in the best way I can.
If you are looking for requirements to run an application, which I'm guessing because of the category your question is in.
To make it simple, there's the processor, memory, video, and sound. Another not listed in this example would be the amount of space on the hard drive that you need to have.
Here's an example from a popular game:

What does a ammeter do in a circuit?
An ammeter measured how many amperes of current are flowing in an electrical circuit.
Why is a transistor called a pi-polar device?
a transistor is called a Bi-polar device because in this we use both p-type semiconductor and n-type semiconductor.
In p-type semiconductor the current flows with the help of holes(deficiency of an electron or we can say it as a positive charge).
while in n-type semiconductor the current flows with the help of electrons(negatively charged particles).
so the total current is due to both kind of charge carriers.
that's why it is known as a Bi-polar device.
How is an oscillator Smith chart plot different from an amplifier Smith chart plot?
If you look at the reflection coefficient curve as a function of frequency, it follows a counter-clockwise direction about the Smith chart. You should see a loop, and at the "top" of the loop, that is the oscillation frequency.
They both have in common an open-loop gain greater than one, however. So the curve will be outside the Smith chart.
In a digital circuit probably the best way is with a monostable multivibrator, or one shot timer. The length of the timer should be made to be just a little longer than the bounce time of the switch.
Ans2: My favourite is a 2 input NAND gate with both inputs connected to the switch, but with a small RC delay circuit in one of them.
Electricity is the device that control?
A: Electricity is not a device but rather a fiscal flow of electrons
What happens when your phones battery looks fat?
Your battery is probably failing and trying to explode.
A Resistor does exactly what the name suggests, it creates resistance.
More precisely, it creates resistance for the flow of electrons, effectively limiting the amount of current flowing through it(and via ohms law, limits voltage).
To answer the question, A resistor isn't an input or output device, it behaves the same way no matter how you turn it and it can be placed on the input of a component(or circuit) aswell as the output.
How do you measure 30MHz frequency at CRO?
If you must use an oscilloscope, then using Lissajous Figures will give you exact multiples of a given frequency. Naturally, you must have a known reference frequency at hand.
These days a Frequency Counter will give adequate resolution.
LCR meters measure inductance capacitance and resistance
Q requires 2 at once and probably a frequency range you may care about
q meter will probably have two readouts and you may be able to change from Q to power factor
