Hi, can anyone explain to me how voltage-divider and current-divider work physically? Like in terms of forces, fields, potentials of charges... etc..
Thank you!

Voltage-divider and current-divider are used to reduce the voltage or current in a circuit. They are commonly used in electronic circuits to provide a specific voltage or current to a specific component.
The principle behind voltage-divider and current-divider is based on Ohm's Law, which states that the voltage across a resistor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it. By using resistors with specific values, the voltage or current can be divided as needed.
Voltage-divider and current-divider divide the voltage or current by using a series of resistors. The resistors are connected in a way that the total resistance in the circuit creates a voltage or current division ratio according to Ohm's Law.
The output of a voltage-divider and current-divider is affected by the values of the resistors used, as well as the total resistance in the circuit. Changes in the input voltage or current can also affect the output.
Yes, voltage-divider and current-divider can be used in a wide range of electronic circuits. They are commonly used in power supplies, amplifiers, and sensor circuits to provide specific voltages or currents to different components.
