Getting caught up on class work.

Can somebody explain this relationship/formula in plain English? I thought it would come back to me since I was an EM3 in the USCG but nada.

Rt= 20ohms It= 5A Et= 100V Pt=500W
R1= 5ohms I1= 5A E1= 25V P1=125W
R2= 10ohms I2= 5A E2= 50V P2= 230W
R3= 5ohms I3= 5A E3= 25V P3= 125W

Any advice appreciated!:thumbsup:

Wait until you get into fluid dynamics of air flow calculations. This will look like childs play.

Don't come looking for me. I don't know squat about it. I'm sure I can figure out the formula's, but I know I won't want to.

That is how algebra came to me. I got stuck for almost a year, just couldn't grasp it. Then one day, realistically, one second on that day it just came to me. I started algebra in 5th grade and until 6th I didn't get it. After that I breezed through it pretty quick. I ended my math learning in calculus III. Gawd how I hate calculus. I have only used it once in my life, and that was just for fun. If that is what you want to call it.

Landscaping isn't this technical. Though if you want to start a war go to any landscaping forum and ask whether or not to put a stripe kit on your mower.

That's about as technical as we get.

Mostly it's "will this grow", "why isn't this growing", or "how can I get it to not grow so fast".
