To Fuse or Not to Fuse... That is the question!

Let me explain it to you "dude". Voltage is nothing more than the potential to do work. It does not mean any work will be done. VELOCITY of electrons is not a measure of current (current which is the flow of electrons - charge carriers to be most accurate). You cannot "impede" voltage. Saying something "impedes" voltage is akin to saying something "impedes" height (i.e. potential gravitational energy). AGAIN, velocity of electronics is not a measurement, well of anything in this particular case. Current is charge carrier flow rate past a certain "point" in space. Speed of those carriers does not come into play, no more than saying the speed of water in a hose is 25 meters/second tells you how much water is flowing. Resistance does not impact carrier drift speed, but current density does (for a given class of conductor, say copper wire, with a defined number of free carriers). If you want to be pedantic, in a given system, resistance is at some level a measure of available charge carriers, so for a given current, which translates to current density, resistance could impact the effective drift velocity ... You can't impede voltage, you can only impede the flow of charge carriers (and again, to be most accurate, you can only enable it or not enable it). Whether there is air between two electrodes, or a resistor, the voltage does not change, just the ability to move charge carriers. Do you know why the ampere is a fundamental unit of measure, and the volt is not? Your confusion about current and voltage being "the signal" likely comes from a simplistic view of electricity and physics. I see that difference regularly ... say between the knowledge an electrician has w.r.t. electricity (which only needs to be basic), and that of an electrical engineer and/or engineering physicist who must have a deeper understanding of the concepts as they often work at more fundamental levels. Dude, this is not my "first rodeo". Unlike you, I have been doing this for oh, about 25-30 years, and have had to educated the uneducated such as yourself many times. I would suggest not trying to bully me. It won't work. You are not equipped with the tools. geoffkait17,588 posts10-21-2019 3:47pmYou’re all wet, dude. Let me explain it to you. The fuse impedes voltage, not electrons. The velocity of electrons in copper wire is the same regardless of resistance. As I stated already, electrons are not the signal. Current and voltage are the signal. That’s why wire is directional - because wire - including the wire in fuses - impedes voltage a little more in one direction compared to the other. Follow? I realize this is your first rodeo so I’ll cut you some slack. |
Buddy, Some introspection here, you are harassing me. I am telling you to stop. YOU have the choice whether to stop harassing me or not. AGAIN, INTROSPECTION. I am threatening to treat you the way YOU are already treating me. YOU are actually harassing me. STOP. I have already reported you to moderators for doing this. I don't like doing that, but since all you are doing is harassing without bringing anything, literally nothing to the conversation, then YOU need to stop. I expect moderators will deal with you, but if they accept your harassment, then I will respond to YOU accordingly. I was previously a member of this forum for many years, but deleted my account when I got my last venture going. I don't remember your style of harassment without bringing anything to the table being tolerated. clearthink902 posts10-21-2019 4:32pm roberttcan" If you keep harassing me, I will respond in spades.
