For the circuit shown in Figure, take R 1=2 Ω, R 2= 0.9 Ω, R 3=2 Ω, R 4= 12 Ω and ε 1= 8 V, ε 2= 4 V, ε 3= 4 V. Find the current in R 4. (Your result must be in units of Amperes. Include 3 digit after the decimal point and maximum of 5% of error is accepted in your answer.)
Ohm's law
Ohm’s law is a prominent concept in physics and electronics. It gives the relation between the current and the voltage. It is used to analyze and construct electrical circuits. Ohm's law states that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it.
Path of Least Resistance
In a series of alternate pathways, the direction of least resistance is the actual or metaphorical route that offers the least resistance to forwarding motion by a given individual or body.
For the circuit shown in Figure, take R 1=2 Ω, R 2= 0.9 Ω, R 3=2 Ω, R 4= 12 Ω and ε 1= 8 V, ε 2= 4 V, ε 3= 4 V. Find the current in R 4. (Your result must be in units of Amperes. Include 3 digit after the decimal point and maximum of 5% of error is accepted in your answer.)
