Stopping Microwave Antenna Effect
Currently I am working on a project which involves putting a metal shaft into a microwave which extends out of the microwave as well. After grounding the shaft I ran a test to look at the effect of microwave leakage out of the microwave due to an antenna effect from the shaft. There was...- mblair90

Calculating Efficiency of Otto Cycle
My team has recorded information on a single cylinder Otto cycle from a lab we have done. We are supposed to compare the theoretical efficiency of the cycle to the experimental efficiency. Using a given compression ratio of 3 and the ratio of specific heats for the fuels we used we were able to...- mblair90

How Do You Calculate Current in Different Parts of a Circuit?
1. In the circuit of the figure, find the current supplied by the battery. 2. Find the current through the 6\Omega resistor. Attempt at a solution: To find the total current supplied by the battery I tried: \frac{6*4*2}{6+4+2} = 4\Omega Then I did that resistance in series with...- mblair90
