Hello everyone,
I've read about green day when government says to switch off appliances for an hour in evening.
But if everyone switches off appliance, then where will all that current go? We cannot stop generator so quickly.
It's like a dam is giving water to three pipes, in full force. Suddenly two pipes are removed, so wouldn't that one pipe carry all the water and if that one pipe doesn't carry water, wouldn't dam explode since there's more water than it can contain?
Who tells the generator, to supply less current?
Also if I have a single load which with a power supply. Load would be resistor(i hope I'm right.) so if i increase resistance in series(which is like adding load) then the total resistance increases, so current should reduce.
I asked professors but they just said that green day works as news papers say so.
