You have a battery with a voltage of Vtotal = 25 V and two resistors, both with a resistance of R, = R, %3D 40 0. a. How can you connect the resistors to the battery (in series or parallel) in order to achieve the largest power dissipation? How much power is dissipated in this case?
Resistance, R, is defined using R = V/I where V is the potential across a resistor, and I is thecurrent. R is measured in ohms (Ω), where 1 Ω = 1 V/A. The constant you determined in eachequation should be similar to the resistance of each resistor. However, resistors aremanufactured such that their actual value is within a tolerance. For many common resistors, thetolerance is 5% or 10%. Calculate the range of possible values for each resistor. Does the constant in each equation fit within the appropriate range of values for each resistor? Do the resistors follow Ohm’s law? Base your answer on your experimental data.
