Damnit, I knew it'd be something simple... =P Well, thanks for the help!

Homework Statement This doesn't seem too hard but I can't figure it out. I'm trying to write out a power series expansion for a function, and after a bit of math I've got: f\left(x\right) = 1 - \frac32 + \frac98 - \frac{27}{48} + \frac{81}{384}... = 1 - \frac{3^1}2 + \frac{3^2}{2*4} -...

Okay, that makes sense. Thanks for the explanation; I managed to figure out the rest with your help.

Homework Statement Each capacitor is 5 \mu F and V_{ab} = 30 V. I'm trying to find out the charge on each capacitor. Homework Equations C = \frac QV C_{eq} = C_1 + C_2 +... for capacitors in parallel. C_{eq} = \frac{1}{\frac{1}{C_1}+\frac{1}{C_2}+...} for capacitors in series...

Could you explain how you arrived at that? I don't quite follow... Edit: Oh, you mean it should be 11.8 instead of 12.8? Was everything else that I did correct? Edit2: Okay, I was just reading the answer on the calculator wrong. Thanks for the help!

Homework Statement R_1 = 70 \Omega, R_2 = 144 \Omega, R_3 = 237 \Omega, R_4 = 117 \Omega, R_5 = 246 \Omega; V_{ab}=43 V I am looking for the voltage of each resistor as well as the current passing through each one. Homework Equations Kirchoff's Voltage/Current Laws: The sum of any...
