    *summary:*
    - if you have n resistors in a series, the total resistance in the circuit is the sum of them
    - current is the same throughout the circuit (think as good as weakest link)
    - if you have n voltage sources in a series, the total voltage across the circuit is the sum of them
    - voltage will vary throughout the circuit (it depends on your two points of reference)
    - resistors take some of the energy of electrons passing through them and convert them into heat

Then I watched the video at work, understood everything and everything worked after I placed the 500 Ohms resistor in series. Thank you very much!

    Thanks Paul,
    I have a question, if we apply the same concept about more resistance gives less current, into a circuit in a house.
    Why when we have a lot of items working in the same time (resistor is high), the current in the circuit gets overloaded and the circuit breaker trips. Shouldnt the current passing that circuit be less due to the high resistance? Which means CB should not trip. Hope my question make sense 😅

    Hi, love the video! Have a question though. At the 2:30min mark you show two examples - the left one is 9V battery, 400 Ohm resistor, LED and measured 18.7mA, the right one - 9V battery, 900 Ohm resistor, LED and measured 7.9mA. If there were no LEDs the measurements would have been - left 9/400=22.5mA, right 9/900=10mA. I have done some research and found that for those measurements to be true the left LED should be a yellow LED with a voltage rating of 1.8V doing best performance at 22mA - 1.8V/0.022A=81 Ohm, therefore 9V/(400+81)=18.7mA and the right one should be something like a white LED rated at 3.2V, going at 13-14mA, so 3.2V/0.0135A=237 Ohm, therefore 9V/(900+237)=7.9mA. Is my logic correct, because those measurements battled me hard??

    • @jaffleyfifteen5912
      @jaffleyfifteen5912 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's not a given that it's a 9 volt that's just a basic shape to use for the model. Your supposed to find the voltage in that scenario by converting the miliamps to amps, 18.7 x 1000 and then x 400 ohms gives you a 7.48 volt battery

      @ricardogondim2346 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi ;) I understand what you are saying, but i think the best way for you to understand how a series circuits works it´s just thinking about this:
      In a series circuit the current that flows it´s always the same....
      The only thing that can happen is that there are voltage drops.
      And that is why if you measure between those resistances, there will always be voltage drops.
      ..But the electric current is always the same...
      And remember this: In circuits of this type, what is in series will add up the values.
      ..As is the case with resistances ...I think very briefly, this is a series circuit ..

      @ricardogondim2346 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      How´s that? Do the same way he did ! The cable must be isolated... Then, before you connect everything to the battery, first connect the resistor with the cable. Ok, now, you can connect the cable points to the battery!!
      When you´ll be ready to measure, grab you Multimeter put it in the right measure position,=Voltage,Current or resistence=,
      and put the Multimeter terminals on each side of the resistor.
      And this is how you will have a read !
      PS: In that especific case, you can measure the voltage but also the current. So, you apply a known formula__Ohm´s LAw_
      The voltage you already know= 9Volts.
      Now you want to know the Current_! SO, OHm´s Law:: Voltage= Restitance * Current__!!!!! To know now the current:::
      ::::::: Current = Voltage / Resitance::::: So, Volts= 9 volts / Resistance=10 ohm = TOTAL= 0.9 Amper (current).

    In the circuit with an led and resistors you calculate the current as if the resistors were connected to 9v directly. Shouldn't it be 6v because the led is dissipating 3v?

    • @Ressy66
      @Ressy66 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      and most LEDs dont like 9v, typically 1.9- 3.6v depending upon color. so increasing resistance not only reduces current but voltage

    • @superdau
      @superdau 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, but that would make the video too complicated, especially since LED voltages vary quite alot depending on type. Ignoring the LED voltage in this case also is an error on the "safe" side, because in reality the LED will get less current than calculated.

    • @Electronzap
      @Electronzap 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yup. You remove whatever voltage across the resistor that the LED blocks.

    @The Engineering Mindset I have a question. If at 8:09 the Voltage drop accross the resistor is 9 Volts, then doesn't that mean that the circuit has lost all of it's potential difference and then there is no longer any current running through the wire after the resistor because there is no longer a difference in voltage? Thank you for your consideration of my question, I am really stumped and have throughly enjoyed your videos enough to want to endorse you. That's how much I appreciate you

    • @Drewski777
      @Drewski777 ปีที่แล้ว

      Because if the supply voltage is 9 volts, then if the voltage drops by 9 volts, then shouldn't there be net 0 volts left after the resistor? Thank you so much for the help.

    • @EngineeringMindset
      @EngineeringMindset  ปีที่แล้ว

      After the resistor, the voltage is 0v, because we can only measure the difference in voltage across two points. So if we measure with reference to ground which is 0V and the other probe is also connected to ground then there is no difference so we would read 0V. Maybe if you had a very very precise multimeter you could read like 0.001V or something because the wire will have some resistance, unless you measure at exactly the same point. The voltage difference is still across the load (resistor) so current will still flow, the electrons must flow back to complete the circuit and keep the chemical reaction of the battery going.

    So it doesn't matter where within the circuit that the resistors are placed?
    I've seen diagrams that show a simple battery and LED setup with the resistor "before" and "after" the LED light.
    If electrons are flowing from the battery and the resistor is needed to effectively slow down or de-pressurize the electricity to keep the LED light safe, how is it that they can appear after the LED in the circuit?
    This may seem stupid but I simultaneously get it and don't get it. I get how "they do the same job anywhere in a circuit" may be right but something in my brain thinks that makes no sense.
    Edit: Ok, looked around and I learned that it doesn't matter because of a basic rule that I guess I took too literally with the water analogy. I'm glad I was able to get to this altered (but correct) way of seeing it now, as opposed to later.
    *Voltage is equal across the circuit from beginning to end, immediately. Meaning that a resistor anywhere has the same effect across the circuit*
    So, don't think of this in the sense of electrons bursting out of the source and flowing like a tidal wave across the circuit. That "start here and run to the end" idea isn't exactly right. Think of it in the sense that the moment the circuit is complete it has a set, stable voltage from the beginning and end at essentially the same time BECAUSE of what voltage is/means. In this sense you have to lose or alter the water analogy a bit.
    This seems like a basic notion but I'm clearly not alone because a google search came back with literally hundreds of discussions about this very topic/question. Haha.
    It must be a way that some of us interpret the water anlogy as we applied it a bit too literally or strictly.

    • @Saganite
      @Saganite 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for pointing this out. I assumed to protect the LED it would have to be upstream, like a fuse, but this makes sense, the resistor can act like a valve to control flow either upstream or downstream.

      An ampere ('A') is the unit used to measure electric current. Current ('I') is a count of the number of electrons flowing through a circuit.
