    [SOLVED] Load calculations when connected in series and parallel

    Sorry. Did not get you. As you said, adding another load will change the effective resistance and hence the current being drawn from the source. Hence now I have 20W of load. What do you mean by the last line..? "Load rating will not change. Instead the load will share the total power so...

    [SOLVED] Load calculations when connected in series and parallel

    I have a load of 10W, 75 Ohms connected to a DC supply. Now if I add another load of the same rating in parallel to this load, keeping the supply same. What will be the new load across the supply. What if I add it in series instead of parallel..? How does load rating change when connected in...

    [SOLVED] Voltage drop in solar panel when it is connected to load

    Found the problem, I was using a potential divider circuit to reduce the panel voltage for the ADC of micro-controller. It was the voltage of the potential divider that I had been looking at all the while. Upon scaling it with the same factor that the circuit had reduced it the voltage seems...

    [SOLVED] Voltage drop in solar panel when it is connected to load

    Ya there are a lot of fluctuations. Current value goes to a max of .57 which is fine but the problem is voltage, it goes to a max of 2.59V. What bothers me is that power values that I get, it goes to a max of 1.45W. I expected the panel to give a higher output. Its it okay for a 10 W panel to...

    [SOLVED] Voltage drop in solar panel when it is connected to load

    I am using a 10W solar panel for a sun tracker project. I need to monitor the power at regular intervals. But the voltage across the panel drops when I connect the load. The drop is in the range of 15V to 4V/5V. The load that i am connecting is 2 10W resistors of 75ohms in parallel i.e 37.5...

    [SOLVED] What are the good ways to keep your laptop battery healthy?

    Laptops have Li-Ion batteries. These batteries come with internal protection circuitry. So, can a particular usage pattern affect it health and ultimately its life?

    Basic power and energy question

    As far as I get this, the source creates a potential difference in the path so that electrons can flow, just a water flows from a height to the ground. And, the electrons have potential energy in them, which they loose when they come across a load, of any kind. Am I right? Does this explanation...

    Basic power and energy question

    Let's say we have a source of electrical energy, in form of a battery or some other source. We then connect a load to it. The source creates a potential difference across the load and drives a certain amount of current through it. The amount of current depends on the load. We know that, current...

    [SOLVED] Basic circuit analysis

    Let's say we have a light bulb of the following rating : 20W, 100V, 20 Ohms. Let's say that, 20W of power is being supplied to the bulb. By Ohm's Law current through the bulb will be 100/20 A. Now if I use the power formula P=VI, I=20/100 A. Again if I use the heat loss formula P=I^2*R, I will...
