4/7-4/10 Introduction To Electronics

We are getting an introduction to electronics this last week. A lot of information to process and hold onto. For starters, we learned about Ohm's Law, which states, "that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the potential difference across the two points. Introducing the constant of proportionality, the resistance, one arrives at the usual mathematical equation that describes this relationship." 

A very useful visual picture to help in the application of this law has been the following pie chart 

There are three basic circuits: Series, Parallel, and Series-Parallel 

Series is, as the name suggests, all the loads in the circuit are in series. 

Parallel circuits have there loads branching off of the main line and are placed along side of each other. 

And as you can imagine, series-parallel is a combination of both. 



We had an introduction course to the basics of electronics which had a practice test at the course. It did not give me a final grade so I took video.
