    Reaction rate for multiple steps

    Just a curious question. How would the rate for a net reaction involving multiple steps of all similar (perhaps exact - i know it's highly unlikely) activation energies be calculated? I've been told to just look at the slowest step (highest EA) in all cases, even if they are similar in...

    Can there be multiple ground states?

    I am reading an article on wikipedia about ground state and it says - The ground state of a quantum mechanical system is its lowest-energy state; the energy of the ground state is known as the zero-point energy of the system. An excited state is any state with energy greater than the...

    Multiple motors to drive a single axle

    I want to turn an axle or a wheel using multiple motors. With a single motor, sometimes the power is not enough. Is there any method to use two or more motors independently driving the same axle or wheel ? The idea is to have contributions from all the motors so that the axle or the wheel gets...

    Drawing a trajectory with multiple gravitational soures.

    Hi there guys. As the title implies I'm trying to draw a trajectory on the screen (yes, this is indeed about programing :P) involving multiple sources of gravity. Here is my dilemma: Since I'm working with an update loop there would be no problem to just simulate an object and having it...

    Current in a Circuit with Multiple Voltage Sources

    What exactly are the rules for conserving the currents in a circuit? If we have multiple emfs in parallel with each other, how can we figure out the direction and magnitude of currents in each segment of a circuit? It makes perfect sense to me for one emf, and for the most part with two I...
