There are many tutorials that could explain it in detail, and i encourage you to look into it. It's still a 10 ohm resistor, but it's total ckt resistance would be different. My 10 ohm resistor would have a different impedance, depending on how fast my assistant could switch the leads back and forth. and has been shown in Londons Hayward Gallery, The ICA and Tate modern as. So in my battery example, if i had my 10 ohm resistor in there, and i had an assistant who could switch the leads on the battery terminals (back and forth really quickly), id have an AC ckt. The Tank is an old Oil storage tank and has a 24 second reverb, The Inner Ear.

In fact, it can vary a lot from moment to moment. The impedance varies as the frequency changes (which tends to happen in music). Which is why a speaker for instance, is not a fixed load to an amp. The tricky part about impedance, is that it varies (within the same ckt) with frequency. Impedance is a function of an AC (alternating current) ckt. Now the same scenario except i stick in a 10 ohm resistor between the positive and negative. Yes.I replaced tank like for like with the same model numbers.But i believe there is a design fault with this new tank.If i compare old with new, the new container shell rings when you tap it ,but the old one does not.The new tank has heavier small springs on the support plate ,i would suppose this is to counteract the microphonics but in doing so, it zaps the reverb effect. That's a direct short, and basically zero ohms.

So let's say i have a battery, and a wire running from positive to negative. Click to expand.No, they are not the same thing, but many people do use the terms interchangeably (which is incorrect).ĭc or direct current, has a "resistance" to it in a ckt.
