Three resistors connected in series. One resistor has a resistance of 10 ohms having a current of 2 A. The other resistor consumed a power of 30W and the last resistor has a resistance of 15 ohms. Determine the total voltage supplied to the whole circuit
KVL and KCL
KVL stands for Kirchhoff voltage law. KVL states that the total voltage drops around the loop in any closed electric circuit is equal to the sum of total voltage drop in the same closed loop.
Sign Convention
Science and technology incorporate some ideas and techniques of their own to understand a system skilfully and easily. These techniques are called conventions. For example: Sign conventions of mirrors are used to understand the phenomenon of reflection and refraction in an easier way.
