Calculation Resistance Resistance calculation

AI Thread Summary

To find the equivalent resistance in a circuit, it is recommended to redraw the circuit without crossing lines for clarity. This simplification helps in visualizing the connections and makes calculations easier. Users often seek tricks or methods to streamline the process of redrawing circuits. Clear organization of circuit components is essential for effective analysis. Understanding these techniques can significantly aid in solving equivalent resistance problems.

Just a simple question
how would i redraw this circuit so that i could find the equivalent resistance?

Redraw it so you have no crossing lines. If you stare at it
after that the way home should be clear.

thanx for the help,
is there usually a trick for doing these?

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 'Explain this asphalt sheen'

This problem is two parts. The first is to determine what effects are being provided by each of the elements - 1) the window panes; 2) the asphalt surface. My answer to that is The second part of the problem is exactly why you get this affect. And one more spoiler:
