The Engineering Mindset if I break one bulb in the parallel circuit does the A reading for the other bulb go back to full flow? Or is it still split in half even tho the electrons are no longer flowing through the other circuit. In other words would one bulb get brighter the moment you broke the other or would it stay the same brightness. Probably a dumb question but this is a new found interest of mine thanks to you. You do a great job of explaining now I just need to commit all of these formulas to memory. Thanks a ton for the videos

[@whogavehimafork]

I have a degree in mechanical engineering. Was never terribly interested in the electrical side of things because it was harder for me to grasp, so I never paid much mind to my electrical classes. Not to mention I had a very quiet professor from I think the Shandong region of China with a thick accent. She was a perfectly nice and pleasant person but when you can barely hear or understand the lecture in a big lecture hall you become even more disinterested than you already were. Fast forward to today and a large part of my job is troubleshooting and resolving electrical issues in an industrial environment. Finally having hands on experience and excellent one-on-one instruction from my boss (an electrical engineer) has *sparked* an interest in electrical systems and hobby circuitry. So here i am, refreshing myself to fill the gaps in my knowledge. I can wire up a 3-phase motor complete with relays wired into a PLC, but I couldn't remember the basic principles behind current in series vs parallel circuits. And it turns out mechanical systems are quite lovely when you know how to electrically automate them.

[@Artem992]

wow, the explanation for parallel resistance and all of the divisions NOW totally makes sense! thx !!! and here's my 5 cents: a good (and quite extreme) example would be to make a short circuit in parallel, thus (despite the other resistors) the current would flow via the easiest path. It's easier to see it as "leakage". the smaller the resistance - the bigger the hole is. therefore, the more "joints" = the more holes you have with current leaking through. therefore, in parallel setup - the total resistance would ALWAYS be smaller, than the weakest part. 12:20

[@AverageTPSenjoyer]

No the R3 current is 1,5 amps and the R3 ressistance is 3 ohm, to get the current of R3 you just need to: I(3) = I(t) - [I(1)+I(2)] I(3) = 2,5A-[0,6A+0,4A] I(3) =2,5A-1A I(3) =1,5A For R3 ressistance you just use ohms law, which states that ressistance is Voltage divided by current, in this case the current we use to get the R3 ressistance is the R3 current, so: R3=V÷I(3) R3=6V÷1,5A R3=3 ohm Hope it helps

3:15 I’m not quite understanding where you’re getting 2A and 3 ohms from. But if I base this off the diagram Voltage = Current x Resistance Which means base on the numbers in the diagram, the voltage should be 18V 18V = 3A x 6 ohms If I’m wrong about that then the only other answer I can think of is 36V = 3A x 12 ohms

[@anthonyantoine9232]

Just to be a little extra difficult on question 2, you can also sort of work backward and find R3 first using the known amperage after the first branch (1.9A) to figure out the total resistance of the remaining circuit (3.158 ohms) and then using the given 15 ohm resistor to find R3. Then when you have the resistance, you can find the amperage for the third branch and then the remaining amperage which would go through the second branch (or vice versa finding amperage for branch 2 first).

I have a question. At 5:35 a battery at 1.5 V, and a total resistance of 2, equals 3.0A. At 6:12 a battery at 1.5 V, and a total resistance of 3, equals 2.25A. At 7:07 a battery at 1.5 V, and a total resistance of 3, equals 4.5A. At 7:07, you have the same setup(a total resistance of 3), but this time it equals 4.5A, instead of 2.25A. How can a total resistance of 3, with 2 different circuits, equal different Amperage? I see the equations, and I understand the math, but you can't tell me that the numbers stay the same(total resistance, and total voltage), but then you add a lightbulb, and it magically increases the amperage.

[@zykli1332]

OK, after some more research I found a more intuitive answer… Imagine the following We start with a simple circuit (no branch) and a resistance of 1Ohm and 1.5V. Clearly the total current should be: 1.5V/1 Ohm = 1.5A. Now we add a new branch (lightbulb with 1 Ohm). Instead adding the Ohms, calculate the same way as in the first case (only one branch). As every branch gets the same voltage (as there are consumers before the bulb, the „full“ volt is present on each branch). So „before“ ach lightbulb we have 1.5V and 1 Ohm, thus I = U / R = 1.5 V / 1 Ohm = 1.5A „before/after“ each lightbulb. As every branch has/needs 1.5A, we have a total of 3A. If we would add another branch (3 branches with lightbulb with 1 Ohm) this one would also „need“ 1.5A, resulting in 4.5A in total. No matter how many branches/lightbulbs we add, the voltage on each branch is the same, so is the amps. I like to think about ampere as workers who transport the energy (actually ampere are a bulk of electrons, so maybe not that false?). If we add more branches we need more workers, as the total number of workers have to be split across all branches. The total resistance can be calculated with R = U / I and as every branch adds more ampere the total resistance decreases. Maybe one can think of this as the „effectivity“… If we imagine we have only one branch with 2 Ohms we get some numbers, 100% current „flows“ through this branch. If we add another branch with 1 Ohm, some current of that previously 100% will flow through this branch… The percentage will follow the distribution of the resistances, in this case 33% in the 2 Ohm branch, 66% in the 1 Ohm branch. So the „effectivity“ of the 2 Ohms is only 33%, thus the total resistance decreases (compared to only one branch). But how do we get these numbers 33% and 66%? Let’s make it more complicated to see, if it works with also with „not synthetic“ numbers: 15 Ohm, 50 Ohm, 150 Ohm (3 branches). A first idea could be: add everything to 165 Ohm and then 100/165 = ~0.6 (~60%), 50/165 = ~0,3(~30%) and 10/165 = ~0.06(~6%) (should add up to 100%). No matter what these numbers are a bit misleading as 100 Ohm should lead to far fewer current than 15 Ohm… Thus this cannot be right. So if 100 Ohm leads to less current than 15 Ohm, the percentage of 15 Ohm must be higher than the percentage of 100 Ohm. Lets try 1/100Ohm = 0,01, 1/50 Ohm = 0,02, 1/15 Ohm = 0,066 (from Ohms law with 1 volts). It s seems they already add up to 1 (or 100%) but they don’t (imagine we would remove the 15 Ohms, we would get the same numbers but would definitely not add to 1). Instead we calculate the percentage of these numbers… add them up (1/100 + 1/50 + 1/15) and calculate the percentage if 1/100, 1/50 and 1/15 relative to the sum: (1/15) / (1/100 + 1/50 + 1/15) = 0.6896551724 -> ~68% (1/50) / (1/100 + 1/50 + 1/15) = 0,2068965517 -> ~20% (1/100) / (1/100 + 1/50 + 1/15) = 0,1034482759 -> ~10% these will definitely add up to 1 Now we have the percentages of how much current will flow through each branch (depending on the relative resistance). A small test: we pick 225V, which gives us 225/100+225/50+225/15 = 21,75 Amps in total (each brach would be 225V/100 Ohm = 2,25A, 225/50 = 4,5A and 225/15 = 15A). Actually we can achieve the same thing with our percentages (if we somehow knew the total amps)… 21.75 * 0.6896551724 = 14.9999999997 A 21.75 * 0,2068965517 = 4,4999999995 A 21.75 * 0,1034482759 = 2,2500000008 A The percentages seem to work and give us the „amount“ of current „flowing“ through. We can see that we have 100 Ohms but they are only „applied“ to 10% of the current which is why it is less „effective“. Thus, the total resistance gets lower because the resistance is „applied“ to less current. This thinking only works for a fixed number of branches (or a fixed number of amps)… As you can see the amps increase if more branches are added… then we need workers/amps as we have more branches. Again, I’m not a noob but this way it makes a bit more sense and maybe this helps somehow ;) OLD: I’m a complete noob but according to 11:40 the total resistance is calculated differently in parallel circuits. For 1. 6:12 I get a total resistance of 1/( 1/2 + 1/1 ) = 0.6666666667 Ohm For 2. 7:07 I get 1/( 1/1 + 1/1 + 1/1 ) = 0.3333333333 Ohm If we plug this in I = U / R for 1. I = 1.5V / 0.6666666667 Ohm = 2.25A and for 2. I = 1.5V / 0.3333333333 Ohm = 4.5A It seems counterintuitive but I guess this is how current works?

At 7:00 Why do we not measure/place the multimeter after the merge of the 3 branches to measure the total current? Does the Batteries not just release another round of 1,5A of Current at the start before splitting? Can someone explain this to me?

Thank you so much! How can I calculate the maximum power of a resistor? I have desoldered a lot of old circuits, but there are no inscriptions on them except of color stripes indicating resistance. Knowing the resistance, is it possible to somehow calculate the maximum power?

[@EngineeringMindset]

See our resistors explained video

[@MarcusT86]

Great video and I fully understand the explanation. But what I can't get my head around is how in domestic lighting and plug socket circuits, the voltage supply is 230v (UK) so why is it not blowing light bulbs up when from what I've seen all that's resisting the flow is a mere 10 ohms per bulb. Could you do a video on typical measurements, figures, resistances, etc. in domestic circuits please?

[@ModernGunCraft]

The bulb assembly should have resistors in it. And the resistors built into the socket as well limit the {Current}. I think I have that right.

Great video, thanks. But. I don’t understand how placing two 1.5v batteries in series works (how does it double). If I no current flow can occur from the negative terminal to the positive terminal, then how does connecting the positive terminal to the negative terminal of a different battery work? ...shouldn’t the electron difference between the touching terminals balance out immediately (like shorting a single battery with just a piece of wire)?

[@denislavdochev3783]

As explained at around 4:19... Should in this case be observed increase of the current?

[@mithudas7924]

This explanation was best

[@sharangmorye7753]

Excellent content!

[@jeremyjj3866]

These videos are incredible!

[@yuangao1574]

Can you explain why when V increase, I increase by amount of e- flow instead of velocity of e-? It seems to me that the electrons should move faster due to conversion of more electric potential energy to kinetic energy

[@johncarlisle6865]

there is a linear relationship between voltage, current and resistance in an ideal circuit

[@jcwick0859]

how is the total resistance 3 ohms if they eatch have a 6 ohm resistor at 3:10 ... wouldnt it be 12ohms? im confused

[@adamkrasneski3679]

Great vid. Wouldve been even better if capped off w a practical application. Like making a battery eliminator for 2 calculators or something of that nature. Liked how it started off w the lights. Havent studied in like 10 yrs. Needless to say im pretty rusty.

[@dreddkhingmontejo1730]

Can I ask question? How do you find the total resistance which is mentioned, 3.33 ohms?

[@anasmuhammad7778]

1/(1/10)+(1/10)+(1/10)=3.33

[@davidjohnson1134]

Do you have a video on series parallel circuits I am trying to study and I understand parallel and series circuits individually but I can't calculate voltage drop and current through resistors in a combined series parallel circuit

[@ChristopherClaudioSkierka]

hello there, I was just wondering. At around 3.40 you ask the question what is the voltage drop. The answer is 12 volts the same as the intial output of the battery(12 volts) ,so there is no voltage drop? . thanks in advance
