A battery with V = 2.51 V is connected to three
resistors as shown in the figure, where R1 =
2.13 ?, R2 = 4.63 ?, and R3
= 5.25 ?.
a) Find the potential drop across resistor 3.
1.334 V
b) Find the current in resistor 1.
1.178 A
The correct answers are in bold but I would like someone to show my how you get them.
(a) we know that, resistance R2 & R3 connected in series.
Req = (4.63 ) + (5.25 )
Req = 9.88
current flowing in the 2nd loop, I = V / Req (2.51 V) / (9.88 )
I = 0.254 A
Now, the potential drop across resistor 3 will be given as :
V3 = I R3 (0.254 A) (5.25 )
V3 = 1.334 V
(b) The current in resistor 1 will be given as :
using an ohm's law, V = I R1
where, V = voltage of the battery = 2.51 V
R1 = resistance = 2.13
then, we have
(2.51 V) = I (2.13 )
I = 1.178 A
