Magnetic circular dichroism, Faraday effect; Zeeman effect...

    ... If you have two electrical conductors that are charged with electricity, and one has more charge than the other, then if you remove the blockage between those two conductors, the electricity will flow from the conductor with the higher charge into the one with the lower charge, until they are at equilibrium. ... What it does is give a place for the electrical charge in the "hot" wire to go, and in between the hot and neutral, we put the electrical circuits that do work for us -- amplify our bass signal, in this case. ... It's connected to the same place that the neutral wire is, back at the building's electrical service panel, but the difference between it and the neutral is that there's no intentional connection between it and the hot wire, there's no work done between it and the hot wire, it is purely a safety conductor to take current to ground in case there's an accident of some kind -- for instance, if there's an unintentional connection between the hot wire and the chassis of the amp. ...
