  1. What exactly is voltage? - Electrical Engineering Stack Exchange

    The total voltage you get from one out and back, even with a high temperature difference is pretty small. By putting many of these out and back combinations together, you can get a useful …

  2. How are current and voltage related to torque and speed of a …

    Sep 3, 2012 · Voltage instead "regulates" how fast a motor can run: the maximum speed a motor can reach is the speed at which the motor generates a voltage (named "Counter-electromotive …

  3. What is "forward" and "reverse" voltage when working with diodes?

    Mar 3, 2011 · The reverse voltage is the voltage drop across the diode if the voltage at the cathode is more positive than the voltage at the anode (if you connect + to the cathode). This …

  4. How much voltage/current is "dangerous"?

    Likewise, if the current and voltage are below a certain level, a person can--given enough time--safely absorb an arbitrarily large amount of electrical energy. Further, if voltage is sufficiently …

  5. What exactly does "common-mode" mean in the context of op …

    Most, or maybe all, topologies could end up outside of common mode voltage ranges at some specific time. What is important is to understand under what conditions will you be outside of …

  6. Understanding Voltage and Current Phase Difference

    May 10, 2025 · But the capacitor defines the voltage over resistor in an RC series circuit, because the capacitor voltage changes based on the charge it stores, and how the voltage changes …

  7. How to calculate voltage drop over and power loss in wires

    How do I calculate the voltage drop over wires given a supply voltage and a current? How do I anticipate on voltage drop so that the final load has the correct supply voltage? What will be …

  8. voltage - What is the difference between Vrms and Vm? - Electrical ...

    I am relatively new here and I am confused as to the difference between Vrms and Vm. I would be obliged if someone can explain. (This in relation to 3-phase circuits would be even better) My …

  9. What does a voltage or current source actually output?

    Mar 17, 2024 · Voltage is the cause, current is the effect. So both sources provide a voltage on their terminals. In the voltage source the voltage on the output terminals has, or is intended to …

  10. Reducing voltage with resistors - Electrical Engineering Stack …

    Sep 2, 2014 · As others have mentioned you can use a voltage divider of two resistors, but the voltage divider output will change if the load current changes. You can still use a voltage …
