  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 force") …

  2. Why does a resistor reduce voltage if V=IR? [duplicate]

    According to Ohm's law, resistance varies directly with voltage You should read this the other way. Voltage varies directly with current. "R" is the constant of proportionality telling how much it varies. If …

  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 is usually much …

  4. Can a current source have a voltage across it?

    Jan 6, 2016 · A current source can certainly have a voltage across it. If the voltage across a current source is zero, then it is not delivering or absorbing any power. However, if the voltage across the …

  5. voltage - Help me understand the relationship between positive ...

    Some circuits need a negative voltage, so the positive side of a battery would be "ground". Some circuits need positive and negative voltages, in which case there could be two batteries, one with the …

  6. What exactly does "common-mode" mean in the context of op-amps?

    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 the common …

  7. voltage - Is power proportional to V or V^2? - Electrical Engineering ...

    Jan 20, 2021 · Yes, because I is a function of V, as long as we're talking about resistors. Power is linearly proportional to voltage, though, if you're talking about a constant current device.

  8. voltage - What is ground and what does it do? - Electrical Engineering ...

    What meaning does the voltage of a floating voltage source have? If I have voltage source with value V between nodes a and b, it means that the voltage difference between a and b will be V volts. A …

  9. Different voltage sources in parallel - Electrical Engineering Stack ...

    Apr 11, 2019 · I realize connecting two different voltage sources in parallel is a contradiction (in an ideal circuit). But if I were to connect this in practice and measure the voltage across points A and B, what …

  10. voltage - "Ground" vs. "Earth" vs. common vs. negative terminal ...

    Aug 4, 2014 · Voltage has exactly the same problem: one terminal can only "have a voltage" when compared to another terminal. Voltage acts like distance: voltage and distance are double-ended …
