Question

estimate the power consumed by the 10ohm resistor in circuit having 5ohm resistor connected in series with parallel combination. of 10ohm and 30ohm resistors and total current supplied. to the circuit is 5A​

Answer 1

Answer:

22.5 watts

Explanation:

effective R of 10 and 30 ohm in parallel is recipro' of 10^-1and 30^-1=7.5 ohms

others are

5 ohms and 10 ohms

so total R=7.5+5+10

=22.5 ohms

A= 5 amps

so V=R/amps=22.5/5=4.5 v

so watts=V*A=4.5*5

=22.5 w ANSWER
