    Does nuclear power cost massive billion gov subsidies?

    I'm not a physicist, so I won't argue about the physical topics. I am an economist, though, and here's my 2 cents on the economical subject. You're statement is correct, but not complete. You have to add the risk related to advancing technology and changing economic circumstances and...

    Calculating Current in a Direct Current Circuit with Kirchhoff's Rules

    You cleared it up. Well: these are the values: V= 2 v Resistance at point B = 22 ohm " " " A = 39 ohm " " " C = 10 ohm " " " E = 100 ohm " " " D = 82 ohm. I put the equations we found in a lineair...

    Calculating Current in a Direct Current Circuit with Kirchhoff's Rules

    Thanks for helping me. If you define paths like: emf - B.R3 - E.R4 = 0 emf - A.R1 - D.R5 = 0 Can you say the following: for the first loop: R3 and R4 are in series: so I count them together, and use V = I.R to calculate the current in the loop? for the second loop: R1 and R5 are in...

    Calculating Current in a Direct Current Circuit with Kirchhoff's Rules

    But I haven't got a clue how to fit the emf into these equations. Suppose I define a loop in the upper square, I've got: (clockwise rotation) - A . R1 + C . R2 + B . R3 + ? = 0 And in the lower square I've got: (clockwise rotation) - E . R4 - C . R2 - D . R5 + ? = 0 And if you...

    Calculating Current in a Direct Current Circuit with Kirchhoff's Rules

    I have a problem solving the following direct current circuit: The Resistor-values are know, as is the ems. The question is to define the current in each part of the circuit. I thougth of solving it with kirchhoff rules, and therefore I defined several currents. (I, A-> E) I set up...
