Power dissipated by the resistor is given by : P = V²/R = I² R
I² = P / R
Each resistance dissipates energy = 18 Watts
Maximum current through B or C or A is given by : I² = 18 Watts/2 ohms
So I = 3 Amperes maximum
Since the resistances B and C are connected in parallel, the current that comes from the resistance A is divided equally between the resistance B and C.
so current through B = current through resistance C = 1/2 * current thru A
Since, the current passing thru resistor A is max = 3 ampere, then the current through resistor B and resistor C are 1.5 Amperes maximum.
Answer:
The maximum current that can flow through the three resistor is 1.5A.
Explanation:
Given P is 18W .
P=VI
P=IR×I
P=I²R
Therefore as the resistance through B or C or A is 2 ohm.
I²=P/R
I²=18/2
I²=9
I=3A
And as B & C are in parallel connection while A in series and the current is divided so the current will also get divided as 1.5 A each through B & C.
