AI Thread Summary
To analyze a circuit with two connected batteries, it's essential to redraw the schematic and label all currents and voltages across components. The current flows from the negative terminal to the positive terminal of the batteries. Participants suggest using mesh analysis for a systematic approach to determine the values. Alternatively, simplifying the circuit with equivalent components can help clarify the analysis. Ultimately, both methods can be effective depending on the complexity of the circuit.

Assume that this circuit has been connected as shown for a very long time. Re-draw the schematic and label the currents and voltages in and across all components including the View attachment 4024batteries. All components are “ideal.”

The current runs from the negative side of the battery to the postive correct? So first should I try and replace what I can with equivalent components to clean up the circuit?
or should try try and go ahead and use mesh analysis
 
Suppose ,instead of the usual x,y coordinate system with an I basis vector along the x -axis and a corresponding j basis vector along the y-axis we instead have a different pair of basis vectors ,call them e and f along their respective axes. I have seen that this is an important subject in maths My question is what physical applications does such a model apply to? I am asking here because I have devoted quite a lot of time in the past to understanding convectors and the dual...
Fermat's Last Theorem has long been one of the most famous mathematical problems, and is now one of the most famous theorems. It simply states that the equation $$ a^n+b^n=c^n $$ has no solutions with positive integers if ##n>2.## It was named after Pierre de Fermat (1607-1665). The problem itself stems from the book Arithmetica by Diophantus of Alexandria. It gained popularity because Fermat noted in his copy "Cubum autem in duos cubos, aut quadratoquadratum in duos quadratoquadratos, et...
Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...
