Question

What is the current flowing through the circuit shown? (V= 110 V, R, = 200, R2 = 300, R3 = 10 0) (Ohm's law: V = IR)
A. 1.8 A
B. 20 A
C. 0.05 A
D. 0.55 A​

Answer 1

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The first thing you have to do is go back and list the resistances correctly. R1 = 20 R2 = 30 and R3 = 10.

Leave the units off if you can't make an omega.

The resistance of a series circuit (that's what this is) is r1 + r2 + r3 = 10 + 20 + 30 = 60 ohms

Now use ohms law.

R = 60 ohms

V = 110 volts.

I = V / R

I = 110/60

I = 1.833 to the nearest 1/10 = 1.8
