Shock Value B [Trial]

Post by Jim_R »

Discussion for Shock Value, a B division trial in California.
-The path of the Administrator is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men.

-Nothing\'s gonna get deleted. We\'re gonna be like three little Fonzies here. And what\'s Fonzie like? Come on, what\'s Fonzie like?
-Cool?
-Correctamundo. And that\'s what we\'re gonna be. We\'re gonna be cool. Now, I\'m gonna count to three, and when I count three, you let go of your mouse, and back away from the keyboard. But when you do it, you do it cool. Ready? One... two... three.

Right hand is used when electric generators are involved and left hand is used when electric motors are involved. It's better explained on this site:

Hope it helps :)

I have a little problem with voltage drops. How do you find it out?

That depends on the circuit and the component. But generally a combination of Ohm's Law or Kirchoff's Laws.
