Electricity is Magic!
No electrons are wasted but everything is finally grounded...
The power required for a device is simply the amount of electrons it needs to draw to operate...
So my main question is: if we place the higher electron-sucking machines at the end of the circuit and position the lower ones before them in the same conduct path, do we only pay the electricity fee for the bigger device?
Am I right?
Please clarify...
I haven’t studied this deeply, but my rough ideas are still. Thanks!
Single Line of Conduct? - Maybe Optic Fibre?
I believe it would be best to purchase a simple guide explaining what electricity is and its applications in powering devices.
No, that doesn't make sense.
Rate charges are expressed in Watts, Coulombs per second, and generally measured in kWh or power over time.
In a typical household AC setup, all power is usually delivered in parallel, so it doesn’t need to be added at the end of the line in that way.
Even in a series circuit, adding devices introduces internal resistance, which increases the load and requires more coulombs per second (and higher voltage for series connections).
You’re right about electrons continuing to move—their flow through a wire or resistance causes energy loss as heat, which is essentially what you pay for.
AC power is intriguing because generators rapidly push electrons back and forth, preventing them from traveling too far. Circuits draw more force when more devices are connected, requiring stronger generators.
A useful analogy is water flow: constant pressure equals voltage, pipe size equals current, and together they produce power. Adding a larger wheel slows the smaller one proportionally to the power it requires.
