Unknown Voltage Source and Current

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on determining the voltage across a 9.1-ohm resistor in an unknown voltage source circuit. One participant suggests reviewing a previous thread where a similar problem was solved step-by-step. They recommend using nodal equations or loop equations to analyze the circuit effectively. The emphasis is on revisiting the original solution for clarity. Understanding these methods is crucial for solving the current problem accurately.

clue: what's the voltage on the 9.1 ohm resistor? then just keep going.
 
Pantera, if you look closer https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=159391" You might notice that I already solved a similar problem for you. I even did it in a step by step ;) So, I guess that you've to go back to the original thread and read it one more time, because the solution is there, you just can't see it. So take a better look ;)

You can either solve it by applying nodal equations as I did for you in another thread, or you can write two loop equations the describes the circuit.

Thread 'What happens if shielded cable has a short to the shield?'

While I was rolling out a shielded cable, a though came to my mind - what happens to the current flow in the cable if there came a short between the wire and the shield in both ends of the cable? For simplicity, lets assume a 1-wire copper wire wrapped in an aluminum shield. The wire and the shield has the same cross section area. There are insulating material between them, and in both ends there is a short between them. My first thought, the total resistance of the cable would be reduced...

Thread 'Underwater piezoelectric sensor array receive sensitivity'

Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...

Thread 'Question about bonding ground and neutral'

I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
