Question

(a) Calculate effective resistance.
(b) Calculate total current in the circuit.
(c) Find the current flown through 8Ω resistor.
(d) Find power consumed by 4Ω resistor.

Answer 1

Answer:

8ohm and 8 ohm resistors are connected in parallel so will use formula of parallel to calculate resistance

R=1/R+1/R =1/8+1/8 =1+1/8 =2/8 =1/4 so R =4ohm and

second resistance is connected in series that is 4 ohm

so we use series formula R=R+R =4 +4 =8 ohm
