In a series circuit (loads connected in a row end to end), it's easy to calculate total circuit resistance because you simply add up all the resistances to get the total. In a parallel circuit, the voltage is the same across all the loads; the amperage is simply added up, but the resistance is a […]

MATLAB Handle Graphics It was December 5th, 1952, only seven years after the end of WWII in London, England, when the “great smog” settled across the city. The “great smog” was the result of a meteorological anomaly combined with unchecked industrial pollution. Still, even once it settled on the city, bringing business to a screeching […]

The term “short” has become a meaningless phrase in common culture to mean “anything wrong with an electrical device.” A short circuit is a particular fault that can mean one of two things in technical lingo: 1. Any two circuits that are connecting in an undesigned manner This issue would be the case if a […]
