How would you hook up three resistors in a circuit to get (a) the maximum current and
(b) the minimum current?
A 200-2 resistor and a 500-N resistor are in series as a part of a larger circuit. If the
voltage across the 200-N resistor is 2.0 V, what is the voltage across the 500-2 resistor?
If the equivalent resistance of the two resistors in series is 50-N and 12-2 if they are
connected in parallel, what are the resistances of the two resistors?
Three resistors R1 = 20, R2 = 42 R3 = 82 are connected to a source with terminal
voltage of 6V. find the current that would pass through each resistor and the voltage
across each if they are connected in
a. series
b. parallel.
A 40 resistor is connected in series with the parallel assembly of 3 Q and 6 Nresistors.
The current through the 4 2 resistor is 6 A. What is the current through the 3 2
resistor?
