Watch those hands.

Actually, the "AMP" should be charges.

 

Why is ohm pulling on amp with a rope from above? Wouldn't it be better if ohm was just standing on the other side of the hole trying to prevent amp from coming through? Or pushing down from above trying to squeeze amp?

What difference does it make whether Ohm is pulling up on a rope in order to squeeze the pipe making it harder for Amp to get through, or pushing down in order to squeeze it?

Because the rope on amp isn't making sense to me. I don't see how that applies.

The rope ISN'T on Amp. It is around the pipe that Volt is trying to push Amp through. By pulling on the rope, Ohm is making the pipe narrower and thus requiring Volt to push harder to force Amp through it.

The rope represents the fictitious magnetic field, while the slip-knot represents the quantum nature of the electromagnetic force.

I have to admit, I enjoy those old drawings, very descriptive. Amp even has some heat loss in the form of sweat.

Ah ok I see that now. Makes more sense now.

I like it because it clearly shows that AMP is not the energy carrier in the system from source to load, AMP is a transfer agent at that spot. AMP remains the same (value/rate) before and after the pipe restriction. Electrical energy moves into AMP at the restriction from 'VOLT' (electric field) , that 'part' of AMP is accelerated (the cross-section changes so speed increases to maintain the rate of change) to gain KE, that KE is lost (transferred to heat and sweat) due to OHM during the pipe restriction and Mr. AMP returns to normal.

 

I think my original joke has got lost somewhere in all of this
