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.
The total resistance of N resistors in parallel is the inverse of the sum of all inverse resistances. This equation might make more sense than that last sentence: N resistors in parallel. To find the total resistance, invert each resistance value, add them up, and then invert that.
