How do I figure out the impedance if the figures are shown in watts? I am used to seeing the values in rectangular form.

We can't answer a question based on a picture we can't see. The picture is out of focus and cuts half of the text.

It baffles me how often people can't take the time to write an acceptable post.

I can picture you waving your fist in the air, haha calm down!

Picture looks ok to me pal, you can see the power figures in place instead of the usual Z impedance. I was saying I have never came across this before.

Please read this before posting. You aren't getting any help by being passive aggressive.

Thread 'Voltmeter readings for this circuit with switches'

TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...

Thread 'Correct statement about a reservoir with an outlet pipe'

The answer to this question is statements (ii) and (iv) are correct. (i) This is FALSE because the speed of water in the tap is greater than speed at the water surface (ii) I don't even understand this statement. What does the "seal" part have to do with water flowing out? Won't the water still flow out through the tap until the tank is empty whether the reservoir is sealed or not? (iii) In my opinion, this statement would be correct. Increasing the gravitational potential energy of the...
