Power with varible resistance
I know that P=VI, but what i was thinking about is that if we kept the voltage constant and increased the resistance, we will have less energy consumed by the resistance per second. So, this seems ill …

Electrons after drop voltage
I know that the voltage between two terminals of a battery causes the electrons to move through the wire, and I also know that the voltage in a circuit is distributed among the number of resistors in …

Resistor and voltage drop [duplicate]
I know that a voltage drop of a resistor is the energy lost from the potential energy of the electrons.well, what i am really confused about is why the potential energy of the electron decreases as it …

Voltage and Energy in a capacitor [duplicate]
Well, my first question is related to the energy of the capacitor. Why does the energy of capacitor equals $E=\frac{1}{2}QV$ and not $E=QV$;in other words, why we multiplied it by $\frac{1}{2}$??
My s …

Trouble understanding Electric flux and gauss law
Well, i know that the electric flux is the number of field lines passing a certain area, but (1)what does that mean? I can't the concept itself. I know it have many applications, gauss law one of them …

Voltage and Current
I know that as voltage increases, current increases by $V=IR$, but I really find some difficulty in understanding this at the atomic level (what happens with the electrons inside that wire). I underst …

Why does an electron lose all of its energy in a resistor?
Why does the electron uses nearly all of its energy for one resistor in a simple circuit made of a battery, wire, and resistor?
I really need to know what happens exactly at the atomic level in the c …

Is the electric field in the wires of the parallel circuit always the same and how that affe...
When we connect two resistors connected in parallel with a battery, it creates an electric field through this wire.
well, my question here:
Is the electric field in the main wire is the same as the tw …

Why as distance decreases capacitance increases?
I understand mathematically that as the distance between the capacitor plates decreases, capacitance increases, but I find there is a small contradiction that I want to understand. If the capacitance …
