You are building a circuit in which you need a resistor of 20Ω that must be made of three resistors connected in parallel.. If one of the resistors is 38Ω and the second is 83Ω, what must be the value of the third resistor?
KVL and KCL
KVL stands for Kirchhoff voltage law. KVL states that the total voltage drops around the loop in any closed electric circuit is equal to the sum of total voltage drop in the same closed loop.
Sign Convention
Science and technology incorporate some ideas and techniques of their own to understand a system skilfully and easily. These techniques are called conventions. For example: Sign conventions of mirrors are used to understand the phenomenon of reflection and refraction in an easier way.
