Thank you for the confirmation JasonRF and the great example Bob S. That gave me a reason to continue reading about Poynting's Theorem. I'm not quite that far in my classes to understand everything I've read relating to Poynting's Theorem (I'm just going into my Freshman year) but I understand...

I was curious about how exactly energy was transferred in electrical circuits because all my texts were inadequate. After pouring through many sources ("electrical energy transfer" or anything similar yields crappy results through every search engine I tried) I finally found something I could...

I understand the classical model completely, I know all about Latice collisions and phonons and even about LEDs (a PN junction by the way). I'm smart enough to use a search engine to find out how different electrical components work. None of those are my question. My question is much harder...

I'm sorry, I didn't phrase my question appropriately. I know exactly how devices are connected and how energy sources are transferred into electrical energy. I'm looking for information on how exactly a device is delivered this electric energy through a current. For example, if I have a simple...

My specific question is "How is electrical energy made available to devices?" Everyone knows that "devices transfer electrical energy into useful forms" of energy, such as light and heat. What I have discovered is that no source I have found has been able to describe exactly how devices GET...
