Can u calculate the current in the 3 ohm and the 2 ohm resistors
ScanSolve AI Answer
Answer
Step-by-step solution
3 stepsIdentify the total current in the circuit.
From the previous problem, the ammeter indicates the total current flowing from the source is .
Determine the current through the resistor.
The resistor is connected in series with the main current path. In a series circuit, the current is the same through all components.
Therefore, the current through the resistor is the total current.Determine the current through the resistor.
Similarly, the resistor is also connected in series with the main current path.
Therefore, the current through the resistor is the total current.The current in the resistor is and the current in the resistor is .
