AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on using Kirchhoff's rules to calculate the currents I1, I2, and I3 in a given circuit. The circuit parameters include an emf of 9 V, an internal resistance of 1.5 ohms, and three resistors with values of 5, 15, and 16.23 ohms. The user has calculated I1 as 0.86 but is unsure how to proceed further. Participants emphasize the need to clarify whether the resistors are in series, parallel, or a combination to determine the currents accurately. The thread highlights the importance of sharing the circuit diagram for better assistance.

I really need help. I actually don't know how to do this

Use Kirchoff's rules to determine I1, I2 and I3 for the following circuit:
Circuit figure
https://chip.physics.purdue.edu/protected/Prelab221img/e4pp2.jpg

E1 = emf = 9 V
r = internal resistance = 1.5
R1 = 5
R2 = 15
R3 = 16.23

Find I1, I2, I3

I1 - .86. but I don't know what to do after.

Please Help!

Hello ,
Are the three resistors R1 , R2 and R3 in parallels or series or in combination of these two ?
Once we know this we will be able to find out the current in all the three resistors.

I cannot open the link to that image. The site is asking me to sign up ! Please upload that to any other site or attach it here only.

I think it's easist first to watch a short vidio clip I find these videos very relaxing to watch .. I got to thinking is this being done in the most efficient way? The sand has to be suspended in the water to move it to the outlet ... The faster the water , the more turbulance and the sand stays suspended, so it seems to me the rule of thumb is the hose be aimed towards the outlet at all times .. Many times the workers hit the sand directly which will greatly reduce the water...
