It can be but generally this leads to giving people the misconception of what the load actually is.its basically something that takes energy from the circuit like a motor, light bulb, whatever
ya nastyI'm glad this is posted in the Physics section
Blame societyya nasty
Yes (Something that provides it with energy). Hence the load is obtained by applying a current/voltage across the element (in your example the element is a motor).So something that makes it do work?
Ok. Thanks for all the replies everyoneYes (Something that provides it with energy). Hence the load is obtained by applying a current/voltage across the element (in your example the element is a motor).
