Question

Find out (a) Total resistance (b) Total current (c) Potential

difference on (i) 8Ω (ii) 5Ω (iii) 3 Ω (iv) 6Ω.​

Answer 1

Answer:

a. Bc and kj resistance are in series

resistance=8+6=14

and ef and gh are in parallel

1/R=1/3+1/5

R=1.875

total resistance=14+1.875

=15.875ohm

b. current remains same in series circuit

using ohm's law

I=v/r

I=12/15.875

I=.756(approx)

c.

1. using ohm's law which is

v=ir

v=.756*8

v=6.048v

2. voltage remains same in parallel circuit

3. voltage remains same in parallel circuit

4. v=ir

v=.756*6

v=4.536
