Question

find the current through 10 ohm resistor for the following circuit​

Answer 1

Answer:

hence the current through 10ohm resistor is 3.2A

Answer 2

Concept:

Resistance is measured as the opposition to current flow in an electrical circuit. It is expressed as R = V/I

Given:

Resistance of resistor = 10 ohm

R1  = 2  ohm

R2 = 10 ohm

R3 = 6 ohm

R4 = 3 ohm

Find:

We need to determine the current flowing through the circuit.

Solution:

R3 and R4 are connected in series therefore- 6 +3 = 9 = R5

Resistance in parallel = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R5

Resistance in parallel = 1/2 + 1/10 + 1/9

Resistance in parallel = 45+9+10/90

R = 64/90 ohm

R = 0.711 ohms

Therefore, voltage, V = IR

V = 4(0.711)

V = 2.84 V

Current through the 10 ohm resistor is-

V = IR

I = V/R

I = 2.84 / 0.711

I = 3.99 A ≈ 4A

Thus, the current through the 10-ohm resistor for the given circuit​ is 4A.
