    How to calculate resistance needed for voltage drop

    Thanks, guys. I'm definitely impressed with myself that I was able to get my brain to figure that out, as simple as it was. However, you lost me with the zener diode. I completely understand the concept that the voltage may vary with load on the pump, however, I have no idea how I would...

    How to calculate resistance needed for voltage drop

    The power supply reads that it is rated for DC output 120W or 6.32A.

    How to calculate resistance needed for voltage drop

    Hi. I'm hoping someone can help me out with a pretty simple physics question. My electrical circuit skills are pretty rusty, so please bear with me. I'm using a 19V DC laptop adapter to power a 12V DC pump motor. The pump is rated for 3.5A. I have an on/off switch between the power supply...
