How to Find Thevenin Equivalent Resistance?
Hi gneill, I've thought about doing that but because of the way the circuit is built, I don't quite understand which resistors are in series/parallel with other resistors. Can you give me some tips/hints?- jgv115

How to Find Thevenin Equivalent Resistance?
Homework Statement Where R1 = 2.4k, R2 = 2.9k, Vs1=7V, Vs2=7v and Is = 4mA For this circuit I need to find the Thevenin Equivalent resistance. Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution *Just a heads up, all my loop analysis stuff is going clockwise* I've tried everything to try to solve...- jgv115

Kirchhoff's Current Law problem
Homework Statement The Attempt at a Solution Currents entering the top node... \frac{V}{6000} - 0.01 - \frac{V}{9000} - \frac{V}{8000} + 0.009 - \frac{V}{3000} = 0 Solve for V I get -2.48 The current Ia is the addition of the current going out of Rd add Is2 so... I =...- jgv115

Simple parallel circuit question
Hmm... does that mean I'm missing the resistor above i_{2}? That makes it V= i_{3}R + i_{4}R + i_{2}R . Is that right?- jgv115

Simple parallel circuit question
Hi, NascentOxygen Thanks for the simple explanation (which is all I needed for this maths question). Could you perhaps confirm whether or not V= i_{3}R + i_{4}R I'm just a bit worried that because the current gets split at the top node that this somehow isn't correct. Thank you- jgv115

Simple parallel circuit question
Ok so my maths department decided to give us a question about electrical circuits with no information on how they work. Considering that more than half of the students are only starting their physics study this year (including me) it seems a bit odd... I just need a bit of clarification on a few...- jgv115
