What is the current through the voltage source?

Expert Solution

Step 1

When resistors in series are connected then equivalent resistance is equal to the sum of the resistances while in parallel we add their reciprocal. In a series circuit, the current is the same across resistances while in parallel combination the voltage remains same across resistors. Ohm's law states that Voltage is directly proportional to curent.
