Question

1. Find the total resistance and current in the circuit

Answer 1

Given figure 2Ω and 3Ω resistance are series combination, so

R = R₁+R₂

R₄ = 3+2

R₄ = 5Ω

Resistance R₃ and R is parallel series so total resistance

1/R = 1/R₄ + 1/R₃

1/R = 1/5 + 1/5

1/R = 2/5

Total resistance R = 5/2 Ω

R = 2.5Ω

Current in circuit i = V/R

i = 4/2.5

i = 1.6 ampere
