Well, my question still stands, and the parts of the circuit I was asking about are just the wires connecting the components.Noah Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12090737231644083723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2852817874012684255.post-24584943346798204092011-05-17T16:19:25.190-04:002011-05-17T16:19:25.190-04:00Awesome!

I never thought of resistance as a scaling factor for converting voltage into amperage before.<br />I'm still a little hazy on the meaning of current though. <br />in the diagram<br />--------~~~---<br />| |<br />| |<br />_ |<br />- |<br />_ |<br />- |<br />| |<br />C |<br />|-------A-----<br />B<br />|<br />_<br />-<br /><br />Where the A, B, and C label locations in the circuit (and the ~~~ is the resistor), is there a difference between the current at any of the labels? If the -5 at one end of the power source is added to the +5 at the other end we get the required 0 result (right?) and the extra 0 has no effect. The 0 is different from the +5 and the -5, so does this difference draw both positive "holes" and negative electrons from the ends of the power source? And, in general, what foodstuffs *are* ohmic and which are not? <br />I'm so confused.Noah Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12090737231644083723noreply@blogger.com
