    Understanding Transformers: The Relationship Between Voltage and Amperage

    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

    Understanding Transformers: The Relationship Between Voltage and Amperage

    ok so the current on the primary side always more than the current on the secondary side so that wattage (V*I) is the same on both sides

    Understanding Transformers: The Relationship Between Voltage and Amperage

    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...

    Understanding Transformers: The Relationship Between Voltage and Amperage

    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...

    Discover the Speed of Our Movement in Relation to the Center of the Universe

    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...

    Understanding Transformers: The Relationship Between Voltage and Amperage

    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...

    Understanding Transformers: The Relationship Between Voltage and Amperage

    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...

    Where Do Electrons Come From in DC Generated Current?

    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...

    Where Do Electrons Come From in DC Generated Current?

    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...

    Where Do Electrons Come From in DC Generated Current?

    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...

    Where Do Electrons Come From in DC Generated Current?

    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

    Where Do Electrons Come From in DC Generated Current?

    then is the ground wire safe to touch if the energy has been used by the resistance?

    Where Do Electrons Come From in DC Generated Current?

    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 ?

    Where Do Electrons Come From in DC Generated Current?

    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...
