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

    What is voltage? It's a stack of invisible membranes which fill the space between charged capacitor plates. Voltage is the pattern of concentric onion-layers which surround any charged …

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

    Sep 3, 2012 · A DC motor can be approximated as a circuit with a resistor, and voltage back-emf source. The resistor models the intrinsic resistance of the motor windings. The back-emf …

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

    Aug 4, 2014 · Voltage and Current. In electricity there are positive charges (usually protons) and negative charges (usually electrons. When one object is positively charged, and another is …

  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. Volts vs voltage - Electrical Engineering Stack Exchange

    Jul 30, 2015 · Voltage is a difference of electric potential. To simplify, it is an measure of the difference in concentration of electrons between two points. Volts is a unit of measure of …

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

    Apr 8, 2013 · The RMS value of a waveform is the DC-equivalent voltage. It means, that if you have a sine wave with an RMS value of 10 volts RMS, in order to deliver the same power via …

  7. voltage - Explain in layman's terms Vgs and Vgs(th) of MOSFET's ...

    Feb 26, 2015 · Vgs(th) is the voltage at which the mosfet channel begins to conduct. At this voltage, a positive voltage, it creates an electric field, which attract electrons (since our applied …

  8. voltage - Whats does "hr" mean among "V" and "Ah" in batteries ...

    Dec 2, 2015 · It means that the battery has a capacity of 25 Ah when discharged in 10 hours. 25 Ah is 25 Amps for 1 Hour which is equivalent to 2.5 Amps in 10 Hours.

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

    But the average voltage of the two is still 5 V, and more importantly, we don't care about that. The signal of interest is the difference between the two sides, i.e. 5.025 V - 4.975 V = 50 mV. So …

  10. What are the highest DC and AC voltages or currents that can be ...

    Sep 16, 2014 · It's more than enough voltage to cause enough current to kill you if applied below the skin surface, through your heart. High voltage at limited current or limited energy is not …
