When an electric current flows through a resistor, a voltage drops across it. There is a simple way of measuring the voltage across a resistor by using a voltmeter. But, if we need to calculate it from the circuit parameters, then how can we do that? In this article, I’m going to explain the formula … Read more
Every device we use contains a circuit in it. A circuit consists of some circuit elements that are used for different purposes. These elements in a circuit can be connected in different ways depending on the functions for which these circuits are used. Based on the types of connections of the elements, electric circuits are … Read more
