Radio Waves are a range of frequencies within the spectrum of light — a type of electromagnetic radiation (EMR) — found throughout the world. They are generated whenever a charged particles are accelerated, thus there is radio noise that results […]

Short Circuit
A short circuit occurs when a current flows through an electric circuit without resistance. If electrons flow without being impeded in some way, excess heat will be caused by the friction of these electrons moving in the conductive material. Too […]

Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law is used in the study of series circuits, where it is observed that the voltage applied to a closed circuit is equal to the sum of the voltage drops within that circuit. Another way of expressing this […]

Kirchhoff’s Current Law (KCL) is another statement about the law of conservation of energy within a circuit, affirming the conservation of charge flow. It states that the sum of currents entering a junction is equal to the sum of currents […]
