Question
Five resistors of different resistance are connected together as shown in figure. A 12V battery is connected to the arrangement Calculate
(a)the total resistance in the circuit,
(b) the total current flowing in the circuit.
Answer
Given :
In the given figure,
- R₁ = 10Ω
- R₂ = 40Ω
- R₃ = 30Ω
- R₄ = 20Ω
- R₅ = 60Ω
voltage of the battery, V = 12V.
To find :
(a) Total Resistance in the circuit
(b) Total current flowing in the circuit
Solution :
(a) In the given figure there are 2 setup of connection. In one setup R₁ and R₂ are connected in parallel combination.
» The reciprocal of the combined resistance of a number of resistance connected in parallel is equal to the sum of the reciprocal of all the individual resistances. .i.e.,
similarly,
In another setup,
there are three resistors R₃, R₄ and R₅ are connected in parallel combination,
Now both set R₁₂ and R₃₄₅ come in series combination, so total resistance in the circuit,
thus, total resistance of the circuit is 18 Ω.
(b) According to ohms law,
The potential difference V, across the ends of a given metallic wire in an electric circuit is directly proportional to the current flowing through it provided temperature remains the same .i.e.,
V = IR
here,
- V denotes potential difference
- I denotes current
- R denotes resistance
by substituting all the given values in the formula,
thus, Total current flowing in the circuit is 0.67A.
Remember !
SI unit of Resistance is ohms (Ω)
SI unit of current is Ampere (A)
