    Battery/general electricity misunderstandings

    Yes, that's the way I thought the whole time! Since I knew that electrons flow neg to pos, I saw that the chassis was just like a huge conductor, and all the electronic components receive their power through the chassis (and all the electronic components are then attached to the fuse box and...

    Battery/general electricity misunderstandings

    VK6, it's hard to move on when I'm on shaky ground. I wish to also just forget about this and move on, but how can I, if my foundation is weak? But according to that wiki diagram, maybe I was confusing electron flow with the "flow of positive charge"? What exactly is this "positive charge"...

    Battery/general electricity misunderstandings

    I definitely agree with you... I've been stumbling over this problem for a while, and I do wish to move on. But a reason why I'm so determined to figure this out is because I need to work on my real car. My understanding is that electrons flow NEG to POS But in the automotive world, they...

    Car Batteries, and how they're connected

    This is an automotive-related question, but I’m sure any of you guys can answer it. The car battery is a significant part that supplies lots of power to various components of the car. I always thought that the battery would be connected to various connectors in order to supply the power...

    Seeking more information about this intriguing path

    Thanks for the reply guys, much appreciated. I never heard about Mechatronics, but it sounds like the perfect fit for me. So if my school does not have a specific Mechatronics major, it's possible to double major in Electrical and Mechanical? It sounds extremely difficult haha!

    Seeking more information about this intriguing path

    Hey guys. I’m new here, so just a little about me so you guys can understand my situation. I was dead-set on studying Mechanical Engineering in order to study Automotive Engineering in the future… However, I’ve been having second thoughts. I’ve been toying around with the idea in my mind...
