Dc circuits with two or more batteries

AI Thread Summary
To find potential differences in circuits with multiple batteries, Kirchhoff's Loop Rule is essential, stating that the sum of currents and voltages around a closed loop equals zero. This principle allows for the calculation of electric potential at specific points in the circuit. Resources and explanations on Kirchhoff's rules can provide further clarity on this topic. Understanding these concepts is crucial for analyzing complex DC circuits effectively. Utilizing Kirchhoff's Loop Rule simplifies the process of determining potential differences in such circuits.

How do i find pottential differences between two points in such a circuit? Could anyone post a link to a page that can help explain such circuits, because i am greatly confused

There is something called "Kirchoff's Loop" rule for circuits. It should be relatively easy to find.
 
The sum of current and voltage around any closed loop should be zero. Thats pretty much what kirchhoffs rule says.
 
You could use that fact to find the electric potential at a certain point in a circuit.
 
Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'

Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'

In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanged mass'

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanged mass'

Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
