Required Answer:-

GiveN:

  • A battery with voltage 2V
  • Three 5 ohms, 15 ohms and 25 ohms resistors connected in parallel.

To FinD:

  • Current flowing through the 5 ohms resistor?

Step-by-Step Explanation:

First we need to find the equivalent resistance to find the current flowing through the wire.

➛1/Req. = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3

➛1/Req. = 1/5 + 1/15 + 1/25

➛1/Req. = 15 + 5 + 3/75

➛1/Req. = 23/75

➛Req. = 75/23 ohms

Now using the ohm's law: V = IR

➛2V = I × 75/23 ohms

➛I = 2 × 23 / 75 A

➛I = 46/75 A

In parallel combination, the current divides according to the Resistance of each resistors.

Current through 5 ohms resistor

= 46/75 ÷ 5 A

= 46/375 A

= 0.12267 A (approx.)

Therefore:

  • The current flowing through the 5 ohm resistor is 0.12267 A
