i learned about the right and left hand rule. But when are you suppose to use the right hand rule and when are you suppose to use the left hand rule? :?: :?:

Right hand is used when electric generators are involved and left hand is used when electric motors are involved. It's better explained on this site:

Hope it helps :)

I have a little problem with voltage drops. How do you find it out?

That depends on the circuit and the component. But generally a combination of Ohm's Law or Kirchoff's Laws.
