प्रश्न
A p.d. of 4 V is applied to two resistors of 6 Ω and 2 Ω connected in series. Calculate:
(a) the combined resistance
(b) the current flowing
(c) the p.d. across the 6 Ω resistor
उत्तर
(a) When two resistors are connected in series, their resultant resistance is given by
R = R1+ R2
Here, R1=6Ω ,
R2=2 Ω
Therefore
The resulatant resistance, R = 6 + 2 = 8 Ω
(b) The current flowing through circuit is:
V = IR
I = V/R = 4/8
I = 0.5 A
(c) The p.d. across the 6 Ω resistor is:
V = 0.5 A x 6 Ω = 3 V
