Experts please: DC CIRCUIT (PARALLEL-SERIES CIRCUIT) QUESTION

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating the ammeter reading in a DC circuit involving parallel and series configurations. Participants emphasize the importance of using Kirchhoff's circuit laws for accurate calculations, noting that the original diagram provided by the poster is incorrect. A suggestion is made to share attempted solutions for better assistance. The conversation also highlights that the original poster's question dates back nearly two years, raising doubts about whether they have found a solution. Accurate application of circuit laws is crucial for resolving such electrical circuit problems.

1. Find the reading of the ammeter



2. I've 2 questions here:
Link to the Attachement please,thx.



3. I had made a simplified diagram, but wasn't sure of the calculation.

Help me out with a complete explanation please~! Thx so much!

Show your attempted solution and you'll get help.

Hint: Use Kirchhoff's circuit laws
 
your simplified diagram is wrong. use kirchhoffs law, there is no shortcut, as it is neither a wheatsotone bridge nor symmetrical circuit.
 
Note the OP was nearly 2 years ago.

Hopefully he has arrived at a solution by now.

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...
