What this handout is about. This handout will explain what literature reviews are and offer insights into the form and construction of literature reviews in the humanities, social sciences, and sciences.
Parallel resistance is illustrated by the circulatory system. Each organ is supplied by an artery that branches off the aorta. The total resistance of this parallel arrangement is expressed by the following equation: 1/R total = 1/R a + 1/R b + ... 1/R n. R a, R b, and R n are the resistances of the renal, hepatic, and other arteries respectively.
For a parallel circuit with two resistors, the total resistance is calculated from the expression: 1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2 We are given the total resistance, R, which is 20 ohms and R2 which is 75 ohms. We calculate R1 as follows: 1/20 = 1/R1 + 1/75 1/R1 = 11/300 R1 = 27.27 ohms
