Kirchhoff Definition and 64 Threads

Hello everybody I am currently looking at diffraction through a rectangular aperture. I am looking at an aperture which is large compared to wavelength, and am looking at diffraction at all angles behind the aperture in a distance which is approx equal to the size of the aperture. I am...

I tried doing three loops. For the bottom I did 9-I1(1) + I2(1) - I3(10) -12 = 0, for the upper left corner I did 12 - I2(1)- I2(5) = 0, for the upper right corner I did 9 - I1(1) - I1(8) = 0. I came to I1 =1, I2 =2 and I3 = .2. This was incorrect, I don't think I am summing the currents...

In my lecture, it was explained that Kirchhoff's Rule is used when circuits are too "complicated" to simplify by combining resistances in series and parallel. I do not understand in which cases I can simplify circuits by combining resistances, and on which cases I can only use Kirchoff's Rule...

Naturally there are vector equivalents of the Kirchhoff Integral. Taken from Jackson (10.113) ##\vec{E} \left( \vec{r} \right) = \frac{ie^{ikr}}{r} a^2 E_0 \cos \alpha \left( \vec{k} \times \vec{\epsilon}_2 \right) \frac{J_1 \left( \sin \theta \right)}{\sin \theta}##Where I just let ##\alpha =...

I tried to solve it by loop currents. So on the left mesh the loop current ##I_1## goes clockwise and on the right mesh the loop current ##I_2## goes counterclockwise. I ended up with the following equations: 1) ##V_1-R_1(I_1+I_2)-R_2I_1=0##; 2) ##V_2-R_3I_2-R_1(I_1+I_2)=0##. To find the...

A sketch of the setup and the equivalent circuit are attached. I believe the correct way to solve this is to redraw the circuit as shown in Fig. 3 and then remove the connections between evidently equipotential points, which reduces the problem to a familiar setup of in parallel and in series...

I would like to model the dynamics of a plate. Is it ok to use just the 2d wave equation if the plate will be under tension and fixed at the boundaries? I am a bit confused what the point of the Kirchhoff plate equation is in that case, is it for when the plate is self supporting? Many thanks

Hello! I am bit confused about kirchhoffs law with capacitors. So if I have a battery and resistance, I obtain V-RI=0. But from what I read, if I have a capacitor and resistance (so discharging capacitor), the equation reads R(dq/dt) + q/c = 0, which is equivalent to RI + q/c =0. Why in this...

I've read the derivation of Kirchhoff's formula for three dimensional wave equation using the Euler-Poisson-Darboux equation. The derivation seems to be fine, but I thought that the Kirchhoff's formula as a final result is a kind of result that you should be able to verify it by substituting it...
