It is a smashing one off product for discovering how to repair your electronic items without the normal expense. Ive heard some super things about it and my good mate called Gray after a lifetime of fighting got astronomical results with it.

    Another method to do this without getting the current is to get the percentage. For example, R2 is 3 ohms. You would divide 3/R1+R2 = .6. Now multiple the .6 by the voltage of 20. It should give you 12V. That's the drop for R2. You can do this with as many resistors in a circuit.
    P.S In a series circuit.

    I am trying to find an online calculator for a simple circuit that will allow me to plug in voltage and resistor and give me the output voltage,
    So if I have a source voltage of 20 volts and I was an output voltage of 2 volts, what size resistor will I need ?
    And as I change the voltage, what size resistor will I need for different source voltages to keep my output voltage at 2 volts ?
    Is there a webpage that has this calculator that I could enter the output voltage and input voltage and get the resistor needed ?
    Or input voltage and resistor and have it tell me the voltage it will put out ?
    Thanks

    Thanks for this. Polishes some quite rough edges,..one question though Mkubwa (means Chairman), in the last example, that Voltage drop of -65V, how is it possible to combine 50V and 10V to get 65V(just reverse connection)? That defies the Second Law of Thermodynamics

    • @ricksaburai
      @ricksaburai 3 года назад

      It's not 65V. It's minus 65V, so the potential goes from 50V with a 40V drop to 10V, then another 75V drop to -65V. Total source potential = 50 - (-65) = 115V

  • @debojitacharjee
    @debojitacharjee 3 года назад +1

    I have one confusion about calculating the voltage drop. If I need to use a resistor with one led to connect with 220v AC, then I can find the resistor using the formula R = (supply voltage - led voltage) /led current = (220-2)/0.02=11k. And the wattage of the resistor is P=V^2/R = 218^2/11000=4~5W. But how I will know the voltage drop if I have a resistor with a different ohms and wattage values?

      You'd have to connect 40 20V100mA batteries in parallel for that. 100mA x 40 = 4A
      mAh is a different metric. That's miliamps per hour, which isn't a measure of current, but electric charge.

      Good question. It's directly proportional. The higher the resistance the greater the voltage. What decreases is the current. When the resistance is high the current decreases but the voltage increases.

  • @UndyingEDM
    @UndyingEDM 3 года назад +1

    Can someone help me understand a circuit I'm looking at? There's no current flow in this circuit. On one side there's a +10 V source, in the middle there's a resistor and on the right the wire is connected to a reverse biased diode (hence no current flowing).
    Now, it says on this circuit that the potential at point A - which is right after the resistor - is still 10V. So, no current flowing and no voltage drop across the resistor. This is what I can't understand, why is there no voltage drop?
