I took a Electronics for PC class in an earlier semester.
Mal H and Art are due Credit for those links posted. I just could not edit post earlier for some reason, glitch in the get-along perhaps.
My instructor hated the textbook, so we did handouts and took lecture notes. My lab partener was a Lady Doctor, we were the two old pharts in the class. We, as suggested by instructor, and fueled by our own initiative looked up Info and various subject matters. Art made a suggestion on Search Criteria, and IIRC sent me some links.
Mal H, is really really smart in this area. Great in Math, and in My Class we did a LOT of math as one might expect.
Mal H pointed me to some great resources, made some great points. He did NOT give me answers. He DID agree with me on learning how to do some math without a calc...math is not my strong point, and I never took Trig. Not a pre-req for the class, still we used it [sine-waves]. Mal H did look at some problems, and my answers. I just on my own looked up the math and physics sources. I never took Physics either...I see now how "This Stuff" Relates to each other...
Even when I took Medical Classes, such as Anatomy & Physiology, Principles of Electricity, Physics, Chemistry, and other disciplines were part of the whole package.
I am not that smart - I see the original post and would have to find my notes to better recall and understand. I may need practice and experience on classes now behind me. Then again Art and Mal [ and others] keep telling me "Part of the College eal is the fact you learned to read a question, and learned to find the information".
I aced "Electricity for 4 year olds". Cloth covered cords under lamp tables in the corner...Be Sure to grab the plug itself. If'n you grab the cloth insulation and pull exposing wires, and wittle fingers touch said wires...ZAP, Sparks, Knots on head, and lamps fall off tables...That was AC circuits. For DC circuits I touched tongue to 9V battery...
Carbon batteries burn skin, and Car batteries put holes in jeans...
Never said I was smart, still learning, always will...
I progressed quick from age 4. Now I am older and having taking some classes...
