Lab 2 Problem 4: Resistors and Light Bulbs Ruth Nyagitari March 8, 2016 Physics 1202W, Professor: Thomas Walsh, TA: Joshua Hitbrand Abstract In order to determine the similarities and differences of the electrical properties of light bulbs and resistors the relationship between the voltage across a light bulb and the current through the light bulb was compared to a resistor. A power source was used as a source of potential difference. The change in resistance was observed as well as change in

Lesson 13g: Resistors in Series and Parallel Circuits Any path along which electrons can flow is a circuit. • For a continuous flow of electrons, there must be a complete circuit with no gaps. A • A gap is usually a switch that can be closed (on) to allow electron flow or open (off) to stop electron flow. • If I wanted to draw a schematic diagram (aka 9V circuit diagram) of a resistor powered by a battery that can be turned off and on, it might look like Illustration 1. ◦ Note that the placement

devices that are used to transfer power from source to load in most reliable economical and efficient manner. An electric power system is a network of electrical components deployed to supply, transfer, store, and use electric power. An example of an electric power system is the grid that provides power to an extended area. An electrical grid power system can be broadly divided into the generators that supply the power, the transmission system that carries the power from the generating centers

loss. The minimum hysteresis loss is achieved by selecting material with small hysteresis loop. Rotor: This is part of the machine which is rotating. Windings in the rotor are known as rotor windings Armature: this the place where the conversion (electrical /mechanical) takes place. In case of synchronous generator this takes place in the stator windings. The stator windings can also be called as armature windings (only for the synchronous generators). The main operation of the motor is based on the
