So I'm really new at electronics, and I'm trying to learn from the very basic...
As I went to Vol.3, Chapter 3 (http://www.allaboutcircuits.com/textbook/semiconductors/chpt-3/rectifier-circuits/), and looked at this picture:
I "read" this as the electron "started" flowing from the source to the lamp first then to the diode. As opposed to the diode first (related to my understanding of the electron flow convention, no way for the electron to flow to the diode first as the diode will block). Wouldn't anything different (i.e. light being dimmed) happened then? Since the electricity had already go to the lamp first?
Thanks for the answers!
