Re: Shock Value B/Circuit Lab C
For shock value, would anyone like to share info on multicolored circuits? They are confusing the living daylights out of me, and I wanted to know if anyone knew if it is necessary knowledge for states or not. Haven't seen it yet.
Also, does anyone have a list of people who made major electronic breakthroughs/discoveries?

What do you mean multicolored circuits? Like the resistor color code?

Re: Shock Value B/Circuit Lab C
I believe so. There's a discussion about the letter of the rule and the intent of the rule earlier on this year, but I'm fairly certain auto ranging meters are basic.

Re: Shock Value B/Circuit Lab C
Oops, I meant "multilooped. It autocorrected it 0.o
As in, circuits with multiple batteries. Can someone explain why the loop and current directions when using kirkhoffe's rules are arbitrary?

Re: Shock Value B/Circuit Lab C
Because if you choose the direction to be wrong, you'll simply end up with a negative current. However, you should avoid kirchhoff's rules in circuit analysis as they result in horrendous systems of equations to solve, so instead learn the node voltage and mesh current analysis method, they reduce the number of equations and make your life easier. They are simply more simplified versions of kirchhoff's laws intended for analysis.Toms_42 wrote:Oops, I meant "multilooped. It autocorrected it 0.o

Re: Shock Value B/Circuit Lab C
If your only issue is multiple batteries, I think its easier to do superposition with the batteries. But really just do whatever you're most comfortable with.Unbihexium wrote:Because if you choose the direction to be wrong, you'll simply end up with a negative current.
