a battery of 9 volt is connected in series with resistors of 0.2 M 0.3 mm 0.4 ohm 0.5 ohm and 12 ohm respectively how much current will flow through the 12 ohm resistor
Answers
Given
Battery=9V
resistors of 0.2 ohm, 0.3ohm, 0.4ohm, 0.5ohm and 12ohm are connected in series to battery.
R1=0.2ohm
R2=0.3ohm
R3=0.4ohm
R4=0.5ohm
R5=12ohm
As all are connected in series effective resistance would be :
Reff=R1+R2+R3+R4+R5
=0.2+0.3+0.4+0.5+12
=13.4OHMS
By ohms law : V=IR
I=V/R
=9/13.4
=0.67 A
As resistors are connected in series. I=I1=I2=I3=I4=I5
Hence current across 12ohms resistor is 0.67A
==============ⓢⓦⓘⓖⓨ
Total resistance of resistors when connected in series is given by
= 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5
= 0.2 Ω+ 0.3 Ω+ 0.4 Ω+ 0.5 Ω+ 12 Ω = 13.4 Ω
According to Ohm’s law,
V = IR
I =V/R
I = 9 /13.4 = 0.67
▶▶There is no current division occurring in a series circuit.
So, the current through the 12 Ω resistor will be same as 0.67 A.
I hope, this will help you___❤❤
