Parallel Definition and 1000 Threads

Hello, the problem is better illustrated at the picture below. The capacitor is isolated, with an initial charge Q0. I understand that Q0 does not distribute along the plates homogeneously. How could it be solved with the equivalent parallel circuit?

In teaching HS Physics part of which is Electric Circuits, I have discovered a rule / technique for parallel resistors that I never encountered in all my 30+ years in electronics engineering, nor in any textbook on Circuits. It is what I call " The N + 1 Rule " We all know the Reciprocal...

I am trying to come up with a design for a device with which to generate a rapidly pulsed proton beam (on the order of 1 pulse per ms). My thought was to apply a 10 kV potential between two parallel plates (each with a hole in their center) and inject a steady stream of hydrogen gas through the...

Suppose there exists a pair of parallel plates with a voltage between them. These plates have a certain amount of energy stored in the electric field between them (E=1/2*C*V^2). Now we fire a fast (~5,000,000 m/s) beam of protons through the plates (parallel to the electric field) such that the...

Given that they're all on the same branch, I had assumed that they were in series with one another. But with the middle resistor having being on the middle of three branches, it looks parallel. Like I said, I have a feeling it's in series (making the answer 3R). This question is from a past...

A while back I thought of an issue with parallel charged plates. Imagine this: a set of opposite charged resistive plates with holes in the center. In theory, there is a finite amount of energy required to push a positive charged particle through the hole in the positive plate (in theory it...

Hey guys, I parallelized my code, written in C++, with the MPI library. Unfortunately, the speed-up I get saturates at x6, with increasing number of cores. Whereas, in theory, the speed-up should really be nearly linear. To understand where the bottlenecks come from, I drilled down the code to...

Hi! I'm new to EE and was wondering if this: https://imgur.com/a/lSgNl52 would cause the LED to light up, or would the transistor short the circuit? (I forgot to add the arrow on the diode and I'm too lazy to fix it. And I just realized that the resistor is wrongly placed.)

I did this for fun, if you want to do it in an unconventional way, this would be useful in programming. For ##n## resistors in parallel: $$R_{total}=\frac{\prod_{i=0}^{n-1} R_{i}}{\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}(\prod_{j=0}^{n-2} R_{i+j \mod n})}$$
