palaphys replied to the thread Flux through a ring due to two charges.Intuition says zero.. flux due to one would "cancel out" the one due to the other -
palaphys replied to the thread Flux through a ring due to two charges.sorry radius of ring is given as 12cm. also for the flux calculation through the ring I ignored the charge on the ring, As I am unsure... -
palaphys posted the thread Flux through a ring due to two charges in Introductory Physics Homework Help.here is a simple diagram representing this situation. The issue I'm facing with this problem is a matter of sign convention. We can... -
palaphys posted the thread Minimum height of water to make the particle visible in Introductory Physics Homework Help.I know how to solve this using Snell's law and geometry, but I thought of a different approach- using normal shift Firstly here is a... -
palaphys replied to the thread Multiple reflections in a mirror system.oh I forgot to count the reflection at M1. so this is the mistake in my solution. However if there were no constraints on the number of... -
palaphys replied to the thread Multiple reflections in a mirror system.for the image to be formed, 2 -
palaphys posted the thread Multiple reflections in a mirror system in Introductory Physics Homework Help.There is the figure provided. I know how to approach this problem analytically, but before that I tried to use some logic- Using mirror... -
palaphys replied to the thread Spherical capacitor RC system -- determine steady state charges.sorry, long time but I feel I've tried enough. not getting how to proceed. trying to use V=Q/C -
palaphys replied to the thread Current through shorted branch -- clarification.the correct answer is for voltage at t=0+ is -E. -
palaphys reacted to nasu's post in the thread Current through shorted branch -- clarification with
Like.
The larger question does not matter for the OP question. As you already figured out, it was just a matter of comparing two different... -
palaphys replied to the thread Current through shorted branch -- clarification.also, to be precise the source is a Youtube video, which uses the incorrect polarity. thanks for pointing that out. -
palaphys replied to the thread Current through shorted branch -- clarification.I think I have found my mistake. In this charging equation, I had to substitute ##i_{s.s} ## as -E/(2R) and not just E/2R . (As the... -
palaphys replied to the thread Current through shorted branch -- clarification.I think there is some misunderstanding here. My original question posted here was a part of a larger question, which is the one... -
palaphys replied to the thread Current through shorted branch -- clarification.okay let me post the larger part of the question here. this was the original circuit. I am required to find the voltage across the... -
palaphys posted the thread Current through shorted branch -- clarification in Introductory Physics Homework Help.In this seemingly simple circuit, applying KCL, I get the current in the shorted branch as ## 3E/(2R) - 2E/(2R) = E/(2R) ## but some...
