Kirchoff's Law: Identifying Loops in Circuits

AI Thread Summary
Identifying loops in circuits using Kirchhoff's Law can be challenging, particularly with multiple loops present. In the provided diagrams, the loops for the first diagram are correctly identified as ABCFA and ABCDEFA, while the second diagram's loops are ABCFA and CDEFC. Understanding the structure of the circuit is crucial for accurate loop identification. Clear labeling and visualization of the circuit can aid in this process. Mastery of these concepts is essential for solving circuit problems effectively.

Homework Statement



I am doing Kirchoff's law and i have problems in identifying different loops in a circuit, especially multiple loops. For example, in my attachment for diagram 1, there are 2 loops(ABCFA and ABCDEFA) ? But for diagram 2, the loops are ABCFA and CDEFC?

The loops for 1 and 2 are correct.

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...
