) If the battery in the circuit below is 15.64V, resistor R1=349.44Ω, and resistor R2=284.01Ω, what is the magnitude of the current flowing through the circuit? Please give your answer in units of milli-Amps (mA). b) If the battery in the circuit below is 9.68V, resistor R1=89.21Ω, and resistor R2=32.88Ω, what is the magnitude of the potential drop across resistor R2? Please give your answer in units of Volts (V).
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.
