    The difference between a teacher and a GREAT teacher is that the GREAT teacher makes a complex subject so simple that one remembers it for entire lifetime without much effort. Jesse Mason is without any shadow of doubt a GREAT teacher.

      ​@@JesseMason"Two parallel conductors, 20 Ohms being the resistance of each, are binded to a source of emf=120V and internal resistance 10 Ohms. The free ends and the middles of the two conductors are binded together with two lightbulbs, each of 200 Ohms resistance. Find the current passing through the source."
      This is in my textbook and they say it's I=0.89A. I was using this exact method to solve it and I don't see how that can be. I'm so confused. I would naturally assume it's a mistake in their solutions, but they even drew the circuit AND my solution is too far from 0.89A, namely 3.999A.

      @@JesseMasonAlso, if you could explain why parallelly tied resistors offer less resistance than each individual one of them, that would be great. Like if you tied 15 of 2 Ohms each in parallel, the total is just 2/15 Ohms. I am really confused as to why that is, can't really visualize it. Like, there are smoke pipes for fire house heaters that look like so: one pipe dividing into severall narrower ones and that after half a meter merge into a single one as wide as before the splitting. I'm sure you've seen those, they're called "savers" where I live, and their purpose is to slow down heat and "save" it within the room for longer than it would stay in the single wider pipe. It looks the same as a parallel circuit, and yet parallel circuits have the opposite effect. For electricity, parallel means less resistance, while for smoke and hot air it means more, and I am really confused as to why the former. It's so counter-intuitive.

    There are some who are incredibly smart, BUT they either (1) want to show off how smart they are and talk in hieroglyphics or (2) don't know how to explain in simple terms a complex situation. End result, they can't teach for sh*t. Then there are those who are smart or have long experience but can explain a complex situation to the average Joe walking down the street. They are the TRUE teachers, they are rare & gifted. Jesse Mason is one of the gifted.

    • @ear4funk814
      @ear4funk814 2 роки тому +2

      Nope ... if you use Kirchhoff's Voltage & Current Laws (KVL & KCL), with simultaneous equations, you get the voltage and currents across all segments simultaneously. There are no "redraws" involved ... so it scales well for more complex circuits (the real world). Imagine two of these problems on a 30 min test. This lecture was a good insight into equivalent circuits, if asked to reduce to that (i.e. reduce to Thevenin equivalent) ... but the "go to" method is voltage loops (KVL) and current nodes (KCL) simultaneous equations. I remember having to incorporate mutual inductance & capacitance ... and it mapped easily with simultaneous equations.

    You have no idea how much this helped me. I have an exam for physics in a week, so I sat down to study for it by looking at the previous exams. There was a problem similar to this but with the battery in the middle. I had no idea how to work it because my Professor assumes that we know how to draw these circuits and know what a diagonal wire is supposed to when he's only given us problem with them blatantly in series or parallel. I sat a solid hour trying to figure out the question, and then I just gave up and tried to see if anyone has solved the problem on the internet. It led me to this video, which is by far way more valuable than knowing how to solve the problem. I actually know how to do the problem step by step now and this video made it much easier for me to understand. I wish you were my professor ;-;.

    Heres a little story I made up to remember the rules of series and parallel circuits. Its incredibly cheesy.
    Once upon a time there was a parallel player. He hit up all the women with the same line.... voltage. Since he had so manny women to go to he didn't face much resistance. only problem was he had to divide up all his currency amongst all of them.
    After playing the field he got into a series of serious relationships. Since the woman were more traditional each one gave him her full resistance. To show that he was a one woman at a time man he gave each his full currency. He even dropped some voltage at each one until finally he spent the last of it at the last one.
    Hope this helps at least one person out there.

The MIT course i am taking on circuits is often vague, so I often need to go to youtube. I think this video helped me understand electronics better than that course has so far and it took a lot of the mystery away. Thanks.

    Hi Josh. Great question - and I've received many criticisms about that dummy resistor... If you have done a few of these circuits before, you'll probably know right away that j2 and j3 are one and the same junction because a 0-ohm wire unites them. Not all newbs see that right away though so I incorporate the dummy resistor to 1) visually demonstrate the logic of uniting the junctions separated by a wire, 2) make the translation from the given circuit to the first redraw crystal clear, and 3) highlight the assumption we're making about the resistance of our wire, which is simply not true in the real world. Hope that answers your question, Josh. Cheers from Detroit!

    Jesse you just gave me back most of my confidence that was shattered over a weekend of trying and failing on repeat. I will be trying this out before class tonight, and will let you know how it goes. Possibly the first time I have ever "liked and subscribed" to any UA-cam video, ever. ✌🏻

    Thanks a lot for this video, Jesse. This is really helping me a lot.
    The problem I encounter is keeping track of the parallel resistors that I have turned into series resistors. It's not that much of an issue with smaller problems but in the future, when I'm dealing with 14 or 15 resistors, I know it's going to be a headache.

  • @franklintackettjr3592
    @franklintackettjr3592 8 років тому +58

    Electrical engineering student here. I've been studying circuits for a while now, and I've never seen it explained so well. Also, I believe that this is the first time that I've seen a 0 ohm resistor added to circuit. That idea could have saved me so much time on circuit homework/tests. In your opinion, can this concept be used when solving for the transfer function of a Laplace Transformed circuit?

      The junction is where wires connect. They always mean that a parallel circuit is either starting or ending.

      It's the dummy resistor step... that should have been a parenthetical comment... I took it too far. Sometimes I take things too far. Like this comment. I should've just thumbs-up'd your comment or said thank you... but I feel like I need to defend my teaching abilities from five years ago. So I make a long-winded reply no one will read deep in the comments section. Phew. Glad I got that out of my system.
