Assuming the transistor’s beta is high — and modern devices are usually pretty high — whatever current flows through the emitter will effectively flow through the collector, too.

In the Feb. 22 issue of RWEE, we asked: What is skin effect in alternating current and what is its relationship to current flow? a. Skin effect is the tendency of all current flow on printed circuit ...

Draw a copy of the circuit diagram in your lab book. Use arrows to show the direction in which the current flows through the circuit. Label the input circuit and the output circuit of the ...

If the components in a parallel circuit have different resistances, a different amount of current will flow through each branch. The greater the resistance of the component, the less current will ...

Shini explores electric current, voltaic cells, and how we get electric charge.

the water flow is like the electrical current In many ways, electrical current behaves like water flowing through a closed ring of piping.

Scientists are facing a number of barriers as they try to develop circuits that are microscopic in size, including how to reliably control the current that flows through a circuit that is the ...

To learn more about why current flows through the path of least inductance, you can download Joffe’s presentation (PDF format). The presentation also discusses how return paths affect circuit ...

Current passing through the inductor establishes a magnetic flux. The resulting magnetic field can store energy that is transferred back and forth between the electric circuit and the magnetic circuit ...

Inductance is measured in Henries (H) Impedance: Similar to resistance, impedance is the opposition of AC current flow through a conductor in a reactive circuit (i.e. one exhibiting elements of ...

In contrast to alternating current, or AC, which, depending on the supply's frequency, switches direction 50 or 60 times per second, the current in DC circuits flows only in one direction.
