  1. How are current and voltage related to torque and speed of a …

    Sep 3, 2012 · Voltage instead "regulates" how fast a motor can run: the maximum speed a motor can reach is the speed at which the motor generates a voltage (named "Counter-electromotive …

  2. What is "forward" and "reverse" voltage when working with diodes?

    Mar 3, 2011 · The reverse voltage is the voltage drop across the diode if the voltage at the cathode is more positive than the voltage at the anode (if you connect + to the cathode). This …

  3. What exactly does "common-mode" mean in the context of op …

    Most, or maybe all, topologies could end up outside of common mode voltage ranges at some specific time. What is important is to understand under what conditions will you be outside of …

  4. What does a voltage or current source actually output?

    Mar 17, 2024 · Voltage is the cause, current is the effect. So both sources provide a voltage on their terminals. In the voltage source the voltage on the output terminals has, or is intended to …

  5. How much voltage/current is "dangerous"? - Electrical Engineering …

    Likewise, if the current and voltage are below a certain level, a person can--given enough time--safely absorb an arbitrarily large amount of electrical energy. Further, if voltage is sufficiently …

  6. Reducing voltage with resistors - Electrical Engineering Stack …

    Sep 2, 2014 · As others have mentioned you can use a voltage divider of two resistors, but the voltage divider output will change if the load current changes. You can still use a voltage …

  7. Voltage drop across a single resistor and across two resistors

    Jul 20, 2020 · An intuitive way to look at is that all the voltage is dropped across two resistors, and since the resistors are the same, the voltage drop across each will be the same, each taking half.

  8. How to calculate voltage drop over and power loss in wires

    How do I calculate the voltage drop over wires given a supply voltage and a current? How do I anticipate on voltage drop so that the final load has the correct supply voltage? What will be …

  9. Why does a resistor reduce voltage if V=IR? [duplicate]

    According to Ohm's law, resistance varies directly with voltage You should read this the other way. Voltage varies directly with current. "R" is the constant of proportionality telling how much …

  10. Zener diode forward voltage - Electrical Engineering Stack Exchange

    3 I'm trying to learn how Zener diodes work and I think I get the overall concept (regulating voltage to the zener voltage level), but there's one thing I don't understand. I'm looking at this diode …
