Power is the measure of rate of change of energy in any circuit,then

AI Thread Summary
Power in a circuit is defined as the rate of change of energy, influenced by the power supply, which serves as the energy source. Changes in energy transfer can be achieved by manipulating current, voltage, or both while keeping resistance constant. For example, increasing the voltage to a bulb results in greater illumination, demonstrating the relationship between power and energy change. In DC circuits, while voltage and current may remain stable, component temperatures can fluctuate, affecting energy dynamics. Energy supplied can also manifest in various non-electrical forms, highlighting the versatility of energy transformation in circuits.

power is the measure of rate of change of energy in any circuit,then how the energy is changing in any circuit or how the change in energy happens in circuit?
thanks.

Keep the resistance of the circuit at constant value. And then within permissible limit change the value of either voltage or current, you ll be able to feel the change of power. The classic example is, lighting a bulb. Try to increase voltage given to the bulb, you will see more illumination..
 


And for a DC circuit, voltage and current might be constant but temperature of components likely isn't. The energy supplied by the source can take many non-electrical forms too.
 
While I was rolling out a shielded cable, a though came to my mind - what happens to the current flow in the cable if there came a short between the wire and the shield in both ends of the cable? For simplicity, lets assume a 1-wire copper wire wrapped in an aluminum shield. The wire and the shield has the same cross section area. There are insulating material between them, and in both ends there is a short between them. My first thought, the total resistance of the cable would be reduced...
Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...
I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
