Question
1. A resistance R is connected in series with a parallel circuit comprising two resistors of 12 ohms and 8 ohms respectively. The total power dissipated in the circuit is 70 W when the applied voltage is 22 volts. Calculate the value of R. 2. Two resistors R1 and R2 of 12 ohms and 6 ohms are connected in parallel and this combination is connected in series with a 6.25 ohms resistance R3 and a battery which has an internal resistance (in series with the battery e.m.f.) of 0.25 ohms. Determine the e.m.f. of the battery.
