This function can calculate the unknown resistance in an wheatstone network,
|
||
|
|
given that the three other resistances in the network are known.
|
||
|
|
The formula to calculate the same is:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
---------------
|
||
|
|
|Rx=(R2/R1)*R3|
|

Usage examples:
|
||
|
|
>>> wheatstone_solver(resistance_1=2, resistance_2=4, resistance_3=5)
|

|
|

|
||

>>> wheatstone_solver(resistance_1=356, resistance_2=234, resistance_3=976)
