How do you work out the work out the current through resistors in parallel?

[I would use the whiteboard to draw diagrams as I was talking]
A good analogy for circuits is that of water pipes. The wires are nice wide pipes with no resistance to flow. Resistors are sections of ...

A cannon at ground level is firing at a fort 200m away with 20m high walls. It aims at an angle 30 degrees above the horizontal and fires cannonballs at 50m/s. Assuming no air resistance, will the cannonballs fall short, hit the walls or enter the fort?

solving horizontally, use v=s/t, where s=200, v=25(3)1/2. Hence t=s/v=8/(3)1/2 (where t is the time when the ball would reach the fort if it does not reach the ground)Solivng vertica...

Describe how allopatric speciation occurs.

In a population of a species a barrier forms (for example the formation of a new river, or the division between two islands). This leads to two isolated groups of the original species. In the two isolated...

Use Integration by parts to find ∫ xsin3x dx

∫ xsin3x dx takes the form of any integral ∫ (u)(dv/dx) dx.
∫ (u)(dv/dx) dx = uv - ∫ (v)(du/dx) dx
Taking u=x and dv/dx= sin3x. The equation can be re-written in the form uv - ∫ (v)(du/dx) dx....
