Can't believe how some comments are so rude for a simple numerical mistake 🤦 we appreciate the very clear explanation sir even after 6 years these videos are a gold mine for us 🙏🙏🙏❤️
4:43 Professor, you calculated _R_t_ as 8/7 Ω yet you accidentally used the 1/ _R_t_ value which was of 7/8 Ω. However, this video is still helpful because you taught how to redraw a diagram in order to see more clearly series-parallel connections.
6:11 it should be used 8/7 and 26/3(8 and two third) instead 7/8 and 8/3(two and two third). Anyway, thanks for the course professor. They have been very useful.
Typically you start at the far end and work your way backwards. Also look for places wher resistors are in series or in parallel that can be combined. Better to try lots of examples to see the patterns. (Or watch a number of videos)
I would agree with that. Checking for errors and redoing the video on account of a small error would require time that we don't have. But we do appreciate viewers pointing out such errors for the benefit of others. 🙂
Hello Michel, you have used 8.66667, it should have been 2.66667. 8/3 = 2.666667 I do have to say thank you very much for these videos, they have been a great deal of help. I can see much easier things I have been struggling. with.
Yes, that is a good question. The reason I make such simple mistakes is that I am concentrating so much on what I am explaining that I don't pay attention to those types of details. It is the way my brain is wired. It doesn't happen when I am just working out the problem without explaining it. It is rather strange....
No need to say sorry. It is actually very interesting to me how the human brain works and I always look for a better understanding so that I can better explain things to students and it helps me understand where students make mistakes as well.
Hello sir michel ... i want to tell something I'm student and a i'm from Yemen .... I am studying in university of aden - college of engineering - department of mechanical engineering - and i'am so interesting in your Lectures I am following all the videos...Thank you from the heart of this great work...And I hope to continue .....You are much better than our teachers In college ...I am one of the best mechanical engineering students .....i have honor to Follow people like you ....good luck to you with best wishes (alhussain saleh)
Dr. Van Biezen, thank you for sharing these videos with us, They’re great for reviewing EE topics before exams... regardless of what ignorant people in the comments have to say. Everybody makes mistakes.

Thank you for your comment. Yes we need to remember that we are human and as humans we will make mistakes. 🙂
We are just correcting will all Appreciate and Love Mr Van Bienzeb

Yep!
i guess I'm kinda randomly asking but do anybody know a good site to stream new series online?
@Bowen Rylan Flixportal :)
@Princeton Kareem Thanks, I signed up and it seems to work :D I appreciate it!!
@Bowen Rylan you are welcome xD
6:11 it should be used 8/7 and 26/3(8 and two third) instead 7/8 and 8/3(two and two third). Anyway, thanks for the course professor. They have been very useful.
Yes, you caught the error. Thank you.
the final ans should be 3
I got 3 as well
Ish
concur !!!!
@@leoclarkin5944 I got 2.8. Using the correct numbers, not too dissimilar to what he got. He is also using 8.66667 when in fact it should be 2.6667.
I got 3 as well
Sir, what is the key method to solve any complex circuit like this? please explain
Typically you start at the far end and work your way backwards. Also look for places wher resistors are in series or in parallel that can be combined. Better to try lots of examples to see the patterns. (Or watch a number of videos)
@@MichelvanBiezen Sir, when to use method of star delta or delta star transformation ?
The delta to y transformation is the most useful, making it easier to solve a circuit problem.
The important thing is to get the idea and the method don't look at the errors because we are humans and we must fall in the mistakes
I would agree with that. Checking for errors and redoing the video on account of a small error would require time that we don't have. But we do appreciate viewers pointing out such errors for the benefit of others. 🙂
@@MichelvanBiezen Thank you my teacher i appreciate your work
THE REALLY NEAT THING FOR ME IS THAT HE HAS TAUGHT US SO WELL AND SO MUCH, WE CAN FIND THAT SLIGHT ARITHMETIC ERROR. THANKS PROFESSOR
how did you know the triangle part was its own separate parallel circuit, and not 3 separate branches?
it often helps to redraw the circuit. Note that the 2, 4, and 8 ohm resistors are in parallel and essentially end at the same node at the bottom.
hi professor, there is a mistake on your math. The first rtot should be 8/7, because is 1/r total.
+Bob Medeiros
Rt is 8/7 as I calculated it, but I copied it wrong onto the diagram.
Thanks for bringing it to my attention
So the equivalent resistance should be 3.009 Ω instead.
@@eddie2378 yep ;)
Incredible instruction!
awesome but there is some numerical mistake, but thank u for time that u spend for explaining. tnx from Iran
answer is approx 3.01
I think there's a mistake at the level of the combination of the resistors in parallel
The video is correct. Thank you for checking.
the final ans 3 u make mistake in first parallel
thank you very much professor
Hello Michel, you have used 8.66667, it should have been 2.66667. 8/3 = 2.666667
I do have to say thank you very much for these videos, they have been a great deal of help. I can see much easier things I have been struggling. with.
3.00975 ohms, but who's counting?
Same
How come sir you do mistakes? We sitting here notice them instantly.
But still very neatly explaining vids. Thankyou.
Yes, that is a good question. The reason I make such simple mistakes is that I am concentrating so much on what I am explaining that I don't pay attention to those types of details.

Sorry. I shouldn't have even mentioned it.

I like yor vids very much. Ryt now trying to understand thevnin theorem examples at 4am in morning. Feels like going back in time. Thanks..

Nice redraws anyway...
I always hear "welcome to electronline"
You and many others. 🙂
I love your lectures sir, I always go here after I have learned the basics of some topics so that I can try harder problems!
Glad you found our videos. 🙂

RT=8/7 for the calculation
The R for the 3 resistors in parallel is indeed 8/7 (not 7/8)
Ans: 3 ohm
3.1/1.03
answer comes out to be 3.094 to be precise
Yes, the 7/8 ohms equivalent resistor should be 8/7. Thank you.
3.0097 ohms is what you should have gotten.
U need calculator to solve such an easy calculation and still u get wrong answer ...
Wow insane
Making mistakes is part of being human.

ashutosh tiwari raise your hand, shut up and go to the blackboard and solve it.
He's a really good professor, worked too at a military associated engineering company. Why belittle him by this simple mistake
it's insane how ungrateful some people are
