The more I thought about that, the more I realized that there is no point in re-inventing the wheel. There are people much better at explaining this stuff than I am. For that reason, I'm simply going to point out a few excellent and videos other people have made.
Below, a video about electrical fundamentals: Current, Voltage, and Resistance. He then explains how to use Ohm's law to easily calculate electrical values in a basic circuit. You can ignore the discussion about battery internal resistance if you like. It's tangential to the fundamentals he discusses.
Kirchoff's Current Law:
Kirchoff's Voltage Law: Awesome explanation!
Below, Big Clive helps us understand some basic electronic components, in addition to re-visiting some of the content in the above videos. He has a pretty strong upland accent, which is pretty cool :)
These are terrific video's. I watched the first one and was still confused. Waited a week and had forgotten it all. Ah, life of forgetting things. Thanks for posting them though.
ReplyDeleteYeah I hear what you are saying. I review them all from time to time as well, just to keep myself sharp-ish! LOL.
