I am new to electronics but i love it, love the idea of building projects and doing cool little things, however that being said i need to get some concepts under my belt first.
Theory Questions
If i have a high voltage wire (say 20 000V) and another wire which is grounded hence is at 0V. If a human being (i am assuming that they are an ideal wire and hence does not induce a voltage drop) was to grab a 20 000V and a ground wire at the same time would they be connecting the 20 000V to a short circuit since ground is at 0V? I have attached an image as it is clearer.
Practical Questions
My biggest problem is looking at a circuit and having an almighty difficult time figuring out what the components are there for. Apart from practice and theoretical development how can i overcome this?
Thanks in advance!
