Basic Electrical
This is what makes a material a good conductor
What are Free Electrons?
The term for the repeating pattern
What is cycle?
This gives us the relationship between ohms, voltage, and current
What is Ohms Law?
This is how you measure voltage
What is in parallel?
A material that has an excess of electrons or protons
What is an Ion?
What is frequency?
Total resistance is equal to the sum of the individual resistances
What is a series circuit?
When an electrical path exists between two points
What is continuity?
This is the most common tool for measuring electrical values
What is a digital multi-meter?
2000 Micro-ohms
What is 2 Milli-ohms?
Z2=(XC-XL)2 + R2
What is impedance?
What is a lead acid battery?
This is the expected voltage across multiple branches of a parallel circuit
What is source voltage?
When taking this measurement you must isolate a component
What is Ohms?
They will never cross and are attracted to their opposites
What are electric or magnetic fields?
Current in a circuit produces a magnetic field that then creates an EMF that resist the original force
What is self inductance?
What is a parallel circuit?
You measure full source voltage across a load though it does not operate
What is an open circuit?
At first you should get a reading of almost no resistance that grows until your meter shows OL
What is measuring a capacitor?
Hans Christian Oersted discovered the relationship between these two electrical properties.
What is current and magnetism?
Xc-XL=0
What is resonance?
What is Kirchhoff's Law?
You have continuity in a wire but cannot get the load to operate
What is corroded or broken strands?
You get a reading of approximately 0.7v when measuring a diode
What is forward biased?
