the truth about electricity, voltage, n current

Ohm my Gawd.

Interesting...

There has always been alternating thoeries on this.
You come across very direct though?

There will be resistance

I'm all amped up over this thread.

I was a 'nuke' in the navy. Had to think about this stuff a lot.

Eventually I thought to myself... how do they know there are electrons traveling in the wire?

I realized that when using an ammeters and voltmeters we were always measuring the magnetic field.

No 'electron theory' necessary.

And we don't use 'electrons' for anything.

Either we want the wire to heat up.

Or we are creating magnetic fields, to turn motors, or transmit information.

So after measuring and visualizing magnetic fields long enough you realize that they are the same shape as sonic fields around vibrating objects, and behave basically the same.

Then... just to confirm everything. If you look up any modern textbooks on electrons, you'll find that the idea of electrons orbiting a nucleus has been completely abandoned. With the latest imaging instead being all about fluid-like shells of varying density.

So... what's the confusion?

Watt ?

Fluid like shells kinda like planetary orbits all certain distances from the sun?

I've thought about this stuff myself alot. I am also ex-navy (opticalman). I understand, electrically, what Tesla was trying to do except I don't understand how he was going to transmit it around the earth.

Is this theory current?
Sounds pretty plausible once you plug everything in.
Only those who are relatively grounded can understand theories such as you have stated.

Electrical energy in a wire, is simply the wire vibrating at a certain frequency.
So this we know as 60Hz ...yes? Our 120v service.(Home)

Fools.

Would you mind 3 phasing that, or should I say rephrasing that?
347 your ass

LInk bitch??

Maybe your Mother should have grounded you, eh?

i think you are misunderstanding what an electron is. an electron is made of the same matter as its proton is. it positions its self around the proton using the two magnetic fields(one field from the proton one from the electron). the interaction of these two causes energy to be produced. the energy travels in a wave, which is how it moves through other matter. and yes the vastness of the universe is full of potential for electricity

Anode I shouldn'ta clicked on this thread.

535?

Bwhahshahahhahhahaa

You know nothing of electricity

im a xray tech. we're taught that electrons are boiled off a tungsten filament at the cathode. and then the electrons flow across the tube that slam into an anode target releasing photons. if there are no electrons what creates the photons we use for xraying people?

Thanks OP, love talking about current events.

Correct. As is the "X-Ray Technician".

I say we just stick a bunch of antenae straight up and out into space, see what we get.

We'd be a giant flying pin cushion!

Thinking is NOT the scientific method. Where did you graduate from high school? Robert Milliken ring a bell?

electron is not a unit of measurement. A volt is a unit of measurement.

The "vibration" is measured in Hertz.

Current is measured in Amps.

Resistance is measured in Ohms.

Farads are a measure of capacitance.

I just completed a 6000 hour apprenticeship concerning electricity and it's production and distribution.

I am not trying to brow beat you but want to correct your interpretation of how electricity works


Do yourself a favor and order one of these... [link to www.uglysbooks.com]

Go back to college, and get your money back.

Excellent.

A "Nuke" in the United States Navy indeed...

What does the electron gun of the CRT "fire" if not electrons? What excites the screen phosphors?

Best laugh of the evening.

they've actually seen the wave motion of the electon, and have proven they move form neg to pos, no hope at all
