    God's Existence: Beyond Existing and Nonexisting?

    I think existence/nonexistance are valid categories only for our known world. thus we cannot say god exists or don't exist, both would be wrong. We cannot say/know anything "really" "true" about god, unless we take "god" as a product of human brain.

    Undergrad A Possibly easy for you, but hard for me Question about Sudoku

    A "Possibly easy for you, but hard for me" Question about Sudoku How to calculate the maximum number of valid patterns on a 9x9 Sudoku board? I was coding a flash application which is basically a "sudoku solver". This question is not related with qhat I'm doing but just curious. Please...

    Do Electrons Think? A Question About Electric Current and Ohm's Law

    Well I was checking the recent messages here but I saw I was told why electrons don't prefer to travel to air stuff. I am discouraged and lost my curiosity to read more here (this thread only not the forum:) and done with this thread. Thanks again to all participants of this topic.

    Do Electrons Think? A Question About Electric Current and Ohm's Law

    Ok I see things going fast on the system and we can disregard what's going on step by step. But things don't happen simultaneously right? I mean this happens first and then the other thing...

    Do Electrons Think? A Question About Electric Current and Ohm's Law

    All the explanations of yours makes sense, thank you. I will also check that book axawire. Just will try my last chance to explain the point I am confused. 1.First of all please let me know, if when the power is on, all the system is effected absolutely at the same time or not. I mean is there...

    Do Electrons Think? A Question About Electric Current and Ohm's Law

    No I don't, since I know more or less what is an atom and every matter is made up of atoms in the universe. Okay, tell me the diffence (physically or electrically) between the state of atoms on the red wire and the other branch of the wire; before and after power is on. When I hear a...

    Do Electrons Think? A Question About Electric Current and Ohm's Law

    Allright I attached another diagram below. What I see is, there is no reason an electron don't follow the red arrow, because the first resisting atom is at the very beginning of R1. So there must be current in |A-R1| (but there is not! (assuming the wire has zero resistance of course) )...

    Do Electrons Think? A Question About Electric Current and Ohm's Law

    I disagree. It is obvious that the idea in the first sentence is incorrect. That's why I did not add the rest and put "..." I will try to reconstruct my initial question, to suit the definition of current at NASA site. And by the way I perfectly know that I am wrong and missing something that...

    Do Electrons Think? A Question About Electric Current and Ohm's Law

    Thank you all, these answers made me think about the question again, and I remembered something that I did not clearly know while constructing the question when I was at high school. Please correct me if I am wrong as I am not perfectly sure about this; actually electrons do not travel along...

    Do Electrons Think? A Question About Electric Current and Ohm's Law

    I don't have much knowledge of electricity, but I must say I definitely know everything you mentioned in your last paragraph. I also know wires have resistance, read my first post again: "...Because there is (ideally) zero resistance there." I am sorry for not making myself and my question...

    Do Electrons Think? A Question About Electric Current and Ohm's Law

    I think I have something: these two diagrams below are electrically identical. If the resistance starts just after the point A than there is no question at all. And I know it is assumed to be so in first diagram, although we have some distance between A and R1 (the red wire). I still wonder is...

    Do Electrons Think? A Question About Electric Current and Ohm's Law

    I see. What confuses me is the part marked red in the above diagram. It seems electrons divide (0% to 100% for a short circuit) before they reach the resistance. If this was not the case we should be able to measure current on the red wire. They don't just go nearby the resistance, and turn...

    Do Electrons Think? A Question About Electric Current and Ohm's Law

    [SIZE="1"]Hi, I was talking about this on another forum's general chat section and think you may be interested in answering this simple question of mine. I will copy/paste my question below. I'm sorry if this looks nonsense to you in any way since I am not an electrical engineer :) I am...
