Quotes About Voltage

All evil begins with fifteen volts.

the thunder from Down Under that gives you the second-most-powerful surge that can flow through your body.

being water i am the voltage of rocks

Man's brain may be compared to an electric battery...a group of electric batteries will provide more energy than a single battery.

It's like a jolt of electric, but worse.

Alternating current had a massive advantage over direct current: it could be transformed easily into a higher or lower voltage. Voltage, like water pressure, moves electric charge. Amperage, like water volume, delivers more charge. The two qualities interact inversely. Stepping up voltage reduces amperage. Stepping up voltage allows alternating current to flow on wires of smaller diameter without encountering as much energy-sapping resistance.

In 1883 Stanley conceived the idea of an alternating-current generator with a secondary feedback circuit: a pair of small extra coils that automatically cut in or out of the circuit to stabilize it whenever the voltage dropped.

LIFE IS LIKE ELECTRICITY, ANYONE CAN SHOCK YOU

There is always a charge, of one kind or another. *

Any computer-electronics technician knows otherwise. Try to find a voltage representing one or zero when the power is off! The circuits are in a mu state.

Maybe memory is just electricity passing through us. Old voltage in the joints.

In space there's no way to ground an electric current. If you have stray voltage, it'll find a path, no matter what.

In any S/M exchange there is a sharing of power – the bottom lends his power to the top for the duration, the top adds power, and together they make a lot of voltage. The top gets to wield all this power, a form of extreme empowerment that is exciting, thrilling, hot, erotic, and, as we said before, very, very sexy.

In German, if a situation is tense, you say 'unter strom' - under electricity.

The EEG provided a record of rhythmic fluctuations in potential voltage over various parts of the head. Berger at first thought there was only one wave from the whole brain, but it soon became clear that the waves differed, depending on where the electrodes were put. Modern EEGs use as many as thirty-two separate channels, all over the head.

more diamonds and pearls of electricity

But electricity used the wrong way can be very dangerous.

Voltage crossed the distance between Sheila and Webster. A current composed of anger and remorse and something else-the last flicker of attraction

A radiometer is a device for measuring the intensity of radiation. A microwave radiometer consists of a filter to select a desired band of frequencies followed by a detector which produces an output voltage proportional to its input power.

In medicine there were too many 120-volt plugs that fit into 240-volt outlets. The ease with which a nurse might give one patient medicine intended for another, for example

At sufficiently high energy the force of gravitation between two typical elementary particles becomes as strong as any other force between them. The energy at which this happens is about a thousand million billion billion volts. This is known as the Planck energy.

The thermodynamic properties of electrolyte solutions can be determined from the measurements of the voltage between electrodes reversible to both ions.

Electrical motors used in mobile robots are controlled by modifying the voltage applied to the motors using a technique called pulse width modulation. In many educational robots, control algorithms such as those described in Chap. 6, are used to ensure that the motors rotate at a specified target speed.

I adore storms. I love the raw power of the spectacle: Hydraulics! Voltage! Percussion! Mother Nature has dominion and everyone awaits her whim.
