  1. 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 …

  2. Why did current increase when voltage decreased?

    Jan 6, 2024 · At a lower voltage, you need more current to provide the same power. So any device that is designed to provide the same power regardless of voltage will draw more current …

  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"? - Electrical Engineering …

    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. Does LED brightness change with voltage?

    Sep 6, 2016 · The voltage only needs to be slightly above the forward voltage rating of the LED. A common way to control brightness is through pulse width modulation (PWM). Instead of giving …

  6. 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 …

  7. Ohm's Law confusion -- can there be voltage without current?

    Apr 24, 2015 · 0 Ohm's Law confusion — can there be voltage without current? Yes. The wall outlet has voltage all the time, but current only flows if the circuit is closed with something that …

  8. 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 …

  9. Why does reactive power affect voltage? - Electrical Engineering …

    Why does reactive power influence the voltage? Suppose you have a (weak) power system with a large reactive load. If you suddenly disconnect the load, you would experience a peak in the …

  10. 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 …
