Question

A potential difference of 4v is applied to two resistors of 6 ohm and 2 ohm connected in series calculate _ a. the combined resistance, b. the current flowing ,c. the potential different across 6 ohm resistor​

Answer 1

Explanation:

a. series

equivalent resistance ,R = 6 + 2 = 8 ohm

b. I = V / R = 4 / 8 = 1/2 = 0.5 A

c. potential drop across 6 ohm = I x 6

= 0.5 x 6 = 3 V
