Question
**Determine the voltage across resistor \( R_2 \), given:** \( R_1 = 26 \, \Omega \), \( R_2 = 30 \, \Omega \), and \( I_1 = 1.8 \, \text{A} \) (Round the FINAL answer to one decimal place.) --- **Diagram Explanation:** The circuit diagram shows a simple series circuit with the following components: - A voltage source represented by \( E_T \). - A series connection consisting of two resistors \( R_1 \) and \( R_2 \). - An ammeter (\( A \)) is shown in series with the resistors, displaying the current \( I_1 \). **Analysis:** 1. The current \( I_1 \) is constant throughout the series circuit. 2. Use Ohm's Law (\( V = IR \)) to find the voltage across each resistor. 3. For \( R_2 \), the voltage is calculated as: \[ V_{R_2} = I_1 \times R_2 = 1.8 \, \text{A} \times 30 \, \Omega \]
