Electricity Analogy To Water Animation

The rope loop the band saw water flowing in a pipe the water circuit uneven ground a ring of people each holding a ball the number of buses on a bus route hot water system horse and sugar lump train and coal trucks gravitational rough sea crowded room.

Electricity analogy to water animation. The analogy here is to water flow or more specific the amount of water flowing through a cross sectional area per unit time. Electricity explained intro for a long time folks have been wrestling to come up with a comprehensive analogy for basic electrical terms and functions. If we draw an analogy to a waterfall the voltage would represent the height of the waterfall. The analogy here is to water pressure.

You see amp ratings on just about all electric devices. Again this is a common quantity. In a direct current dc electrical circuit the voltage v in volts is an expression of the available energy per unit charge which drives the electric current i in amperes around a closed circuit. Dc circuit water analogy this is an active graphic.

Amp or ampere is the unit for current. Pccl interactive electricity simulations flash animations applet for free on line electricity learning interactive physics simulations interactive physics animations educational support in flash animations for electricity at middle school high school and academy for sciences classroom. The electronic hydraulic analogy derisively referred to as the drain pipe theory by oliver lodge is the most widely used analogy for electron fluid in a metal conductor since electric current is invisible and the processes in play in electronics are often difficult to demonstrate the various electronic components are represented by hydraulic equivalents. Hydraulic analogy interactive free flash animation to understand the difference between voltage and current.

This physics video explains how the electric current flows using the analogy of water flow. Pccl jean pierre fournat. So here it is. This video is meant for students studying in class 9 and 10 in cb.

We think it does a great job of explaining electricity in really straightforward terms with an imaginative use of a water pump as an analogy. Multimeter intensity voltage rc and rl circuit study. Simulation physics and chemistry by a clear learning in high school middle school upper school secondary school and academy. In this analogy a circuit is modelled as a big.
