Electronics Engineering

Electronics Engineering is a branch of engineering that deals with practical applications of electronic components, devices, systems, or equipment. Electronics are devices that operate on low voltage sources, as in electron tubes, transistors, integrated circuits, and printed circuit boards and use electricity as part of its driving force.

How is an ammeter connected in a circuit in order to read the current flowing in the circuit?

In series with the circuit and never in parallel. The reason being that it will cause the circuit total resistance to drop which will make the circuit draw excessive current. That's a short circuit actually.

How do you calculate current load for 24 V DC?

There are three formulas to calculate current. They are I = E/R, I = W/E and I = the sq. root of W/R. As you can see there is one value missing in your question so it can not be answered.

What size of an inverter generator would you need to run a MacBook Pro?

Look on the AC power adapter and read its rating in watts. You will need an inverter with at least that output capacity.

What is the use of a control grid in cathode ray tube?

The grid in a cathode ray tube is used to control the beam current. The grid in the CRT is positioned near the cathode, and between it (the cathode) and any other elements, like those for focusing. The cathode is the (cylindrical) element that is coated with a metal that has good thermionic properties. That means that as it gets hot, electrons from within its structure reach such high thermal energies that they can actually leave and hang around outside of the metal itself. (Recall that the tube is very highly evacuated.) There is a heater inside the cathode to heat it up to set up the thermionic emission and the space charge. The grid is actually close to the cathode so it can affect this space charge. If the grid is driven negative, the negative grid will "push" on the space charge (the cloud of negative electrons) and keep it in place. (The tube is said to be cut off.) As the grid is driven positive, it will start attracting electrons. Yes, some will actually go to the grid, but the majority will, when flying away from the cathode (and becoming cathode rays) be "caught" by the high voltage on the anode. The stream of electrons, called a beam (because it's focused) will be pulled past the grid to go do their thing at the anode itself. The anode is actually the phosphor coating on the inside of the tube at the "front" where the viewer looks. Electrons smack the coating on the inside of the glass of the tube at a point where they are aimed and ionize it causing it to emit photons. The photons (light) will travel through the glass and out of the tube to the viewer's eyes. Recall that the grid is close to the cathode, and it tells the space charge what to do. If the grid is negative, the space charge huddles near the cathode and the tube is cut off. If the grid becomes a bit positive, some electrons zip out from the cathode, past the grid and on out to the anode. The more positive the grid, the more electrons are called out from the cathode to make the trip to the anode. Moving electrons are current. And the grid is controlling the amount of beam current.

Why tunnel diode are used in negative resistance region?

because that the tunnel diode is a standard pn junction diode in many respect

except its highly doped pn junction so it has some characteristics in the negative resistance region another that its a standard diode

Why does electric current flow into circuits?

It may not be correct to say that an electric current will "flow into" circuits. Electrons move in a circuit in response to an applied voltage. And these electrons are alread in the circuit and available to support current flow if a voltage is applied.

It may be more correct to say that electrons leave the negative terminal of a voltage source, and electrons enter the positive terminal of that voltage source. The electrons in the circuit that are availble to support current flow will "shift over" to create the current flow. Remember that the phenomenon of current flow in a wire is the "shifting over" of electrons in the wire. It's not about electrons going into one end of a wire and those same electrons coming out the other end.

How is a CF-18 Hornet controlled?

The short answer is that the pilot uses a stick which, combined with the rudder pedals, tells a computer what he wants to do. The software then determines the appropriate way to do that by sending commands to the control surfaces and engines. That part is what's called 'fly by wire'.

What is Substitution bias?

The bias that arises when the index number formula used for an output PPI systematically understates average price increases because it does not take into account that producers seeking to maximize revenue from a given technology and inputs may shift production to items with above average relative price increases.

Or, the bias that arises when the index number formula used for an input PPI systematically overstate average price increases because it does not take into account that producers seeking to minimize costs with a given technology and output may shift purchases of inputs to items with below average relative price increases.

Why wattmeter measure the active power?

The wattmeter contains two coils one is current coil and other is pressure coil.

the current coil is connected in series with the line and pressure coil is connected across the supply.

so, the disc links with the flux which is the resultant of these two.(resultant means consider the vector resultant), which include phase angle also.

the active power P=VI(cosine of angle between v & I).

there fore the wattmeter measures the active power.

Comment

There is no 'disc' in a wattmeter. Furthermore, the current coil doesn't measure the load current, it measures the in-phase component of the load current.

What is the voltage of a TV picture tube?

We're talking about high voltage when we talk about the operating voltage of a cathode ray tube (CRT). The operating voltage can vary, as you can imagine. Tens of thousands of volts are not uncommon.

How envelope is eliminated and sine wave is produced in demodulation?

One way to demodulate an amplitude modulated signal from its carrier is to build a peak-follower. This could be a simple RC filter with a diode at the input. The voltage across the capacitor would charge to the peak value of the carrier (envelope), and then discharge through the resistor. The time constant would be selected so that the capacitor would have no "trouble" following the envelope. Since the typical ratio of signal to carrier frequency is quite high, i.e. 20kHz signal vs 1MHz carrier, the time constant can be quite short.

How are motors and a generator different?

Motors convert electrical energy into mechanical energy and generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy

What is the wideband semiconductor?

The WSC6100 Demodulator Monitor & Analysis system provides satellite and microwave communication managers with real-time monitoring and analysis reports by recovering PSK and QAM symbols from digitally modulated Intermediate Frequency (IF) signals.

Why the input impedence of op-Amp is very high?

An ideal amplifier will have a very high input resistance, and low output resistance. This is so it doesn't "load" the input circuitry, and can drive output circuitry.

Say you hooked an op amp up to a microphone that kicked out 100mV unloaded. If you shorted out the microphone, the output would approach 0mV (very low resistance load). If you connected a very high resistance load instead, the output would remain close to 100mV. As the load becomes a smaller resistance/bigger load, the output voltage will decrease until it is no longer useful. This is because the microphone has an internal resistance that remains constant while you're varying the attached load. The voltage drop across the internal resistance will increase as current output increases, causing less of a signal to be delivered to the amplifier.

What are the types of FM receiver?

What do you mean by amplification factor of a triode valve?

"Triode valve" does not make sense. Please restate the question.

Umm... yes, it *does* make sense.

Triode "valve" is non-U.S. English for Triode tube.

OK.

Amplification factor is the amount of anode voltage change to give a chosen amount of anode current change, compared to the amount of grid voltage change for the same anode current change.

The symbol is u (it's actually the Greek character for m), and it's called "mu".

That is, using "d" for "amount of change":

dVa/dVg for equal dIa.

Typical values are as low as 2 (6AS7/6080 regulator valve) to 12 (6C4/12AU7 medium-mu triode) to around 100 (6AV6 high-mu triode).

Some special microwave triode have mu values in the 300s.

How many types of electrical fuses are are there?

First of all, the word "fuse" has many meanings. I am going to assume you are asking about an electrical safety fuse. Possibly the most common is a glass cylinder with round metal ends and a short length of fusible wire. enabling it to melt at a designated amperage. This type of fuse comes in many sizes ranging from about 1/2 inch to over 8 inches long. These are usually used in AC electrical power supply. This type also has a variation in a screw type form that screws into a socket on home ovens. Another numerous type is the Automotive DC fuse, generally a small plastic cube with two metal terminals. These also come in a variety of sizes and shapes. I have never counted all the sub types, but there would be at least 20 or more.
