do not you mean the primary has more current ? as it has increased voltage to the secondary it must increase amperage to the primary to keep wattage in / wattage out the same
but step up transformers do not increase current on the secondary side
they increase voltage and decrease current thereby maintaining same wattage (no free lunch )
step down transformers increase current but decrease voltage
transformers never increase voltage and current both at...
So, this is watt happens ...
if you leave the secondary circuit open there is no power consumed, therefore no current on either side of the transformer
however the current on the primary side will always be double the current on the secondary side if the transformer has doubled the voltage...
impossible for such a thing to exist
(an unmoving center point of the universe)speed of movement is always relative to something else so as we move in relation to a point so does that point move in relation to us so the centre would be moving (in relation to us) if there was a fixed center...
ok
I just toured the Niagara Falls power plant which is at Queenston
there they have the most dramatic depth of gorge creating greater potential energy from falling water which is taken from the river before the falls by a manmade grid
I asked the guide what a transformer does...
here is something I do not understand when a transformer increases voltage it lowers amperage
that way there is no free energy
as power is Volt * amps (watts)but amperage is not preset as it depends on ohms (the resistance to the current or amperage) as amperage = volts / ohms
so what...
no I mean the return wireapparently there is a return wire to the power generation facility
this return wire is sometimes grounded in the sense it is no longer returning to the plant but , I presume , is literally placed in the ground I such a case would this "return" wire have A EMF FIELD...
so you are stating the EMF waves flow to the resistance along both the "live" and return wire (which means it is also "live")
makes sense because
"That EM field energy is then grabbed firmly by the wires and guided by them. The field energy flows parallel to the wires, and eventually it...
the physics of electricity seems unclear to even the top physicist
Richard Feyman suggests that we continue to assume that the energy flows inside the copper! This is Feynman?! ... doesn't he know that the speed of light within solid copper is down in the meters per second ? How then can...
THX FOR THE WARNING but in theory can the return or grounded wire be touched because the resistance has used up the energy of the electromagnetic waves ?
double cheers from Canada
what is in the return white wire?
an electomagneic field wth no energy waves?
has not the energy of the electromagnetic waves been used by the resistance?is there any difference between ac and dc electron drift ?
tremendous NATY
getting the concepts is tricky for a Canadian from the country
one more
in commercial power stations the power is AC
in AC i thought electrons move back and forth while staying within their own orbit (unlike DC where you do have drift) negating the need for a return wire...
