When the power source delivers current, the measured voltage output is lower than the no-load voltage; the difference is the voltage drop (the product of current and resistance) caused by the internal resistance. The concept of internal resistance applies to all kinds of electrical sources and is useful for analyzing many types of circuits.
It is a common misconception to apply the theorem in the opposite scenario. It does not say how to choose the source resistance for a given load resistance. In fact, the source resistance that maximizes power transfer from a voltage source is always zero (the hypothetical ideal voltage source), regardless of the value of the load resistance.
In this type the resistance varies with the applied voltage or current. Negative resistance vs positive resistance: If the I–V curve has a positive slope (increasing to the right) throughout, it represents a positive resistance. An I–V curve that is nonmonotonic (having peaks and valleys) represents a device which has negative resistance.
For experiments, he initially used voltaic piles, but later used a thermocouple as this provided a more stable voltage source in terms of internal resistance and constant voltage. He used a galvanometer to measure current, and knew that the voltage between the thermocouple terminals was proportional to the junction temperature.
In continuum mechanics, stress is a physical quantity that expresses the internal forces that neighboring particles of a continuous material exert on each other, while strain is the measure of the deformation of the material. In simple terms we can define stress as the force of resistance per unit area, offered by a body against deformation.
Few cuts of meat feel as special as a ruby-red slice of prime rib, whether it’s served at a formal steakhouse, a Sunday afternoon buffet, or a holiday party.This well-marbled cut is flavorful ...
In a device without internal resistance, if an electric charge passing through that device gains an energy via work, the net emf for that device is the energy gained per unit charge: . Like other measures of energy per charge, emf uses the SI unit volt , which is equivalent to a joule (SI unit of energy) per coulomb (SI unit of charge).
Years-long contract fights at media companies came to a head in 2024, leading to walk-outs by unions from the New York Times, NBC and Forbes.
