Accordingly when we have an electric circuit or circuits in which there are simple periodic currents we can draw a vector diagram, the lines of which represent the relative magnitudes and phase differences of these currents.
He added definiteness to the idea of the self-induction or inductance of an electric circuit, and gave a mathematical expression for the current flowing out of a Leyden jar during its discharge.
The path in which an electric current exists is called an electric circuit, and may consist wholly of a conducting body, or partly of a conductor and insulator or dielectric, or wholly of a dielectric.
This method may be readily applied to find the resistance of any wire that is a part of an electric circuit.
If the conductor whose resistance is to be measured is made a part of an electric circuit, being connected in series with the ammeter and in shunt with the voltmeter, the resistance may easily be determined, since R = E/I.
To increase the current flowing in an electric circuit, one may therefore either increase the E.
The entire conducting path along which a current of electricity flows is called an electric circuit.
A defective point in an electric circuitdue to a crossing of the parts of the conductor, or to contact with another conductor or the earth, or to a break in the circuit.
A wire, bar, or strip of fusible metal inserted for safety in an electric circuit.
The expression inductance is frequently used in the same sense as coefficient of self-induction, which is a quantity pertaining to an electric circuit depending on its geometrical form and the nature of the surrounding medium.
It may be further defined as the total opposition in anelectric circuit to the flow of an alternating current.
Inductance, or the coefficient of self-induction is the capacity which an electric circuit has of producing induction within itself.
A device for making contacts in an electric circuit at regular intervals.
A piece of mechanism in an electric circuit, which switches the current from one part to the other.
An instrument for indicating the voltage of an electric circuit.
An ignition system, which provides for throwing in and cutting out an electric circuit.
The most convenient way to put an air partition into an electric circuit and so to break it, or to close the circuit again so it will be complete, is to use a switch.
The flow of electricity in an electric circuit may be compared to the flow of the water in the tank we have been imagining.
One of the most effective partitions we can put into an electric circuit is a gap of air.
Defn: An integrating wattmeter for measuring the energy in joules expended in anelectric circuit or developed by a machine.
Defn: The apparent resistance in an electric circuit to the flow of an alternating current, analogous to the actual electrical resistance to a direct current, being the ratio of electromotive force to the current.
Defn: The law that the rate at which heat is produced in any part of an electric circuit is measured by the product of the square of the current into the resistance of that part of the circuit.
Defn: Any apparatus for making and breaking an electric circuit; a circuit breaker.
In the year 1875 Edison took up the study of harmonic telegraphs, in addition to his other work, with the idea of developing a system of multiple transmission by sending sound waves over an electric circuit.
The two plates and the carbon button form part of an electric circuit containing a battery and a galvanometer.
If we introduce into an electric circuit a piece of selenium, prepared in a certain way, its resistance as an electric conductor undergoes a radical change when a beam of sunlight is thrown upon it.
I claim as my invention the art of transmitting vocal sounds or conversations telegraphically through an electric circuit.
When a resistance is thrown into an electric circuit it weakens the current in proportion to the amount of resistance interposed.
The film is then passed between a lamp and a selenium plate connected with an electric circuit and a telephone.
A microphone, it may be explained, is in its simplest form a loose connection in an electric circuit, which causes the current to flow in fits and starts at very frequent intervals.
The receiver consisted of a parabolic reflector to catch the rays and focus them on a selenium cell connected by an electric circuit with an ordinary telephone earpiece.
If lines of magnetic force are interlinked with an electric circuit, and if by any means the number of interlinkages of the lines of magnetic force with the circuit is made to change, then an E.
The above list will hopefully provide you with a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "electric circuit" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this group of words.
