Variable Resistor vs Potentiometer | Difference, Working and Usage Explained

Hi friends
I am Mazhar Iqbal welcome to our RUclips channel Easy Skill
What is a Variable Resistor and a Potentiometer? | Difference, Working and Usage Explained
In this video, I will explain what is a variable resistor and a potentiometer, what is the difference between them, how they work and how to use them in different circuits. I will also show you how to measure the resistance values of both types of resistors using a multimeter and how to decode their value.
A variable resistor is a type of resistor that can change its resistance value by adjusting a knob or a slider. A potentiometer is a particular type of variable resistor that has three terminals and can be used as a voltage divider. Both variable resistors and potentiometers are widely used in electronics for controlling the current, voltage, brightness, speed, sound and other parameters of various devices.
In this video, you will learn:
- The basic structure and function of a variable resistor and a potentiometer
- The difference between variable resistors and potentiometers
- How to connect a variable resistor and a potentiometer in series and parallel circuits
- How to use a multimeter to measure the resistance values of variable resistors and potentiometers
By the end of this video, you will have a clear understanding of a variable resistor and a potentiometer, how they work and how to use them in your projects. You will also be able to apply the concepts learned in this video to other types of resistors and circuits.

Thanks for shareing important topic, mazhar bhai kya hum vr ki value ko imcrease kr sakty hyn? Mtlb 2 vr ko series m kyse connect krain gy?

[@EasySkill]

Kisi bi bari value ki vr laga sakty hain agar kahin dual lagani ho to pehli ki output pe agli k do points mila k laga sakty hai or agli k 3rd Ground pe

Sir ground krnay ka concept clear kr den. Kindly

[@EasySkill]

Ground ka matlab hai tmaam circuit main aik aisa point jo mukhtlif jaghon pe direct connect ho yani k Nagitive wire ya phir kisi device ki Mattel body

AOA sir mujhay aik acha sa multimeter chahiyaye 5000 tak ka ho ziyada mehanga na ho ghar mein chotay motay projects panany honay hain koi model bata dein please.
