Solve Ohm’s law (V = IR) for each of the four elements in the circuit with two parallel resistors in series with a third resistor.
a. Compare the total resistance experienced by the potential difference and current through the battery (i.e. the net resistance) to that for the three resistors when combined according to the rules in your textbook/lecture notes.
b. Explain what happens to the current as it leaves the resistor (R1) connected to the positive terminal of the power supply.
c. If you were to make a complete loop through the power supply, first resistor and second resistor, what would be your total potential change?
d. If you were to make a complete loop through the power supply, first resistor and third resistor, what would be your total potential change?
e. Would Kirchhoff’s rules hold in a series, parallel, or both series/parallel circuit? Why or why not?
