Real Inventor of Electricity

Who invented Electricity?

Many people argue between Nikola Tesla and Thomas Alva Edison for this credit. But they are far away from the truth.
 Benjamin Franklin was the first person who tried to harness electricity from sky using a Kite. String of the kite was made of conductor. He wasn't successful on this attempt. Luigi Galvani termed the concept of “Animal electricity” in 1780, his experiment with dead frog is famous. During 1800, Alexandra Volta did further research and found that Animal electricity and Electricity from sky thunderbolt all are Fundamentally same. Neither Tesla nor Edison is the inventor of electricity. They are inventor of various electrical devices. Electricity is not invented by One Great Person rather it was the contribution of various Scientists and Mathematician like Benjamin Franklin, Luigi Galvani, Alexandra Volta, Michael Faraday, Maxwell, Kelvin, George Ohm, Andre Marie Ampere and many more including Tesla and Edison.
Apart from textbooks one must read books about these great scientists and mathematicians. It’ll make you aware, how did actually they found such great ideas. These books have potential to fill you up with huge curiosity and actual insights of process of invention.

All about Electrical Resistors

Resistors Bilateral, Passive, Linear Element Resistors oppose the flow of current flowing through it. Resistors obey Ohm's Law i.e. I ∝ v Resistors dissipates energy in the form of Heat S = σ + jω Complex Frequency σ = Attenuation Constant ω = Angular friquency Power Loss in resistor (P) P = V &times I = I 2 &times R = V 2 ÷ R Energy dissipated in Resistors as heat in Joules or Simply E R = I 2 &times R &times t = ( V 2 &times t ÷ R ) = ( V &times I &times t ) Change in Resistance due to change in dimension l = length of conductor A = Cross Sectional Area of the conductor ρ = Resistivity of condutor materil Change in Resistace due to change in temperature Let… R t = Resistance of material at temperature t. R 0 = Resistance of material at 0° temperature. α t = Tempera...

Electrical Circuit Elements

Electrical Circuit Elements can be  Linear or Non-Linear  Active or Passive  Unilateral or Bilateral  Time-Variant or Time-Invariant  Linear or Non-Linear  Linear Elements:  V-I characteristics follows only one equation of straight line passing through origine. Examples : Resistors, Inductors, Capacitors and Gyrator Non-Linear Elements:  Elements lacking any of the above mentioned characteristics for linear elements are Non-Linear Elements. Examples : Diodes, Transistors etc.. Active or Passive  Active Elements:  Active circuit elements have capacity of enhancing the energy level of signal passing through it. Slope of V-I characteristics of such elements is negative OR any part of V-I characteristics of such elements lies in 2nd or/and 4th Quadrant Example : Vacuum Tubes, Transistors, Power Sources... Passive Elements:  Passive elements can’t enhance the energy level of signals passing through...
