I had an idea for the wiki, and since it's what I would consider a fairly large change, I thought I'd run it by some people first.

I was thinking I could replace the current 4 Series Circuits Formulas with a section titled Circuits Formulas. In the beginning there would be formulas applicable to circuits in general, such as Ohm's law and Kirchoff's laws. Then the current 4 Series Circuits Formulas would become a subset of that. Another subset would be Parallel Circuit Formulas, and could consist of this image and one or two examples, modeled after the current 4 Series Circuits Formulas. I also feel that this image is better to represent the series circuit formulas. The chart is much easier, for me at least, to understand than a word description. Also, I thought this section might be better after Episode VII, rather than where it is now.

So, what do you think? Should I go ahead with it? Any comments or suggestions?

As long as nothing major gets deleted any wiki edit is always fine

Theoretical current anyone???? really confused

2. A 10 ohm resistor, a 15 ohm resistor, and a 5 ohm resistor are connected in parallel across a 90 V battery.
a. Draw a schematic diagram of the circuit.

Would we have to write the resistance next to the zig-zag resistor symbol?

Since they did give you the resistance I would label the each resistor

I've never heard of that before. Where did you see it?

Could you mean Theoretical current Flow?
if so it is simply that the electrons being negative will flow from the negative terminal of the power source to the positive due to the fact that they are attached to it(the positive terminal)

It was on a test... i'll tell you the exact problem tomorrow

Does the topic of viscosity have anything to do with electricity?

I don't think so
