    Ohm's Law & Circuit Breaker Trips: Why?

    I must be at a physics board if within my first hour I got people questioning my intelligence lol. You guys are funny, there's more to life than who is the biggest poindexter or thinking you know everything which you don't.

    Ohm's Law & Circuit Breaker Trips: Why?

    it was actually an incredibly simple question, not detailed course I was asking for. I guess what you're trying to say is you don't have time to answer questions about basic material. however, the fact that you have time to start drama over the interweb tells me otherwise.

    Ohm's Law & Circuit Breaker Trips: Why?

    when it comes to this stuff 95% of the info on the net is ineffective due to poor writing/describing by the producer plus the info isn't presented with appropriately organized prerequisite information. The net is basically a bunch of recombinant garbage, not solid info. I need a textbook and...

    Ohm's Law & Circuit Breaker Trips: Why?

    Maybe I don't want to pay for scholarly articles, nor drive a half hour to a library. Anyways, thanks for the help.

    Ohm's Law & Circuit Breaker Trips: Why?

    So why does a breaker trip when a saw blade gets stuck?

    Ohm's Law & Circuit Breaker Trips: Why?

    I guess I should have said slow down, then eventually stop if load continued to increase. Although, then why does a breaker trip when you're using a saw and the blade gets stuck? It's not like you are adding another parallel circuit!

    Ohm's Law & Circuit Breaker Trips: Why?

    Yes, I was kind of thinking that was the case. So does that mean if the circuit were in series electron flow would just stop rather than tripping the breaker?

    Ohm's Law & Circuit Breaker Trips: Why?

    If ohm's law is: current = volts/resistance, then why does a circuit breaker trip when you plug in too many appliances. It seems like every time you hook a load up to a circuit you are increasing the resistance of the circuit, and so current should be reduced cooling the circuit down, not...
