    Charge on capacitors each with a battery

    Yes I did get the correct answers. What I ended up doing to get the correct answer was using the EQn V = Q/Ceq. Where Ceq is the correct form for capacitance and Q is the total charge (which is subsequently the charge on capacitor 2). The part that was tripping me up though was that V is 28, not...

    Charge on capacitors each with a battery

    Hey, What I did to work through this problem was to first determine which way the currents were going from the sources and then write an equation based on Kirchhoff's circuit law for the current distribution. From there you can rewrite the capacitors in their appropriate forms (series or...

    Thermodynamics - Find temperature of air in balloon

    Hey, I just typed up this awesome response and then the web browser crapped out on me... so I'm going to summarize. I hope this is still just as helpful Okay so the assumption within the problem is that the pressure remains constant. KEEP THAT IN MIND. Now use this equation for density...
