Question

Transcribed Image Text:**Problem Statement:**
In the following figure, \( R_1 = 22 \, \text{Ohm}, \, R_2 = 58 \, \text{Ohm}, \) and \( R_3 = 80 \, \text{Ohm}. \) The current through \( R_2 \) is \( 4.00 \, \text{A}. \) What is the current through \( R_3 \)? Assume the battery has no internal resistance.
**Diagram Description:**
The circuit is a parallel circuit with three resistors (\( R_1, R_2, \) and \( R_3 \)). A battery is connected, supplying power to the circuit. The current flowing through resistor \( R_2 \) is given, which is \( 4.00 \, \text{A} \). The task is to find the current through resistor \( R_3 \).
**Explanation:**
To solve this problem, we need to use the properties of parallel circuits where the voltage across each parallel element is the same. Given the current through \( R_2 \), we use Ohm's law to find the voltage across \( R_2 \) and then use this voltage to find the current through \( R_3 \).
