    Using Kirchhoff's laws on this current division problem

    Ah I got it. I wasn't considering that the current was entering the circuit "outiside". What about there's no current entering from outside? I mean, what if I have to find the total current in the circuit with the same problem data (except for i=20)?

    Using Kirchhoff's laws on this current division problem

    I mean, the generators are oriented in the same way, so I1 and I2 go in the sale direction

    Using Kirchhoff's laws on this current division problem

    Why I1+I2 = 0 if I2 is clockwise? I miss this point

    Using Kirchhoff's laws on this current division problem

    I get the solution if the verse of I2 is counterclockwise, but why? It should go clockwise following the negative pole.

    I1 flows clockwise as well as I2. In fact I2 can't go counterclockwise from O to N, because after O we have V2 and at first there is the positive pole. But I2 follows the negative one.

    Using Kirchhoff's laws on this current division problem

    The main problem is the verse of the 2 currents ## i1 ## and ## i2 ## . I think they both go clockwise, so in the node A we should have ##i1+i2=20A##. Now let's apply the second law (going clockwise). So ##ΔV1-R1*i3 - R2*i4 + ΔV2=0##, where ##i3## and ##i4## are the currents which pass through...

    Of course! What a silly mistake! Thank you very much!

    Electric field in a spherical shell

    So for the Gaussian theorem we know that $$ \frac{Q}{e} = \vec E \cdot \vec S $$ Q's value is known so we don't need to express it as $$Q=(4/3)\pi*(R_2 ^3-R_1 ^3)*d$$ where d is the density of the charge in the volume. I've expressed the surface $$S=4\pi*x^2$$ where x is the distance of a point...

    How Can I Improve My Physics Problem Solving Skills?

    Hello everyone! I'm curiosissimo, I'm 18 and I'm an Italian high school student. In 2020/2021 I'll attend my last high school class. I'm here because some physics problems are weird and if I make a mistake, I usually waste a lot of time finding out it. But here I'll understand everything better...
