Question

24 volts is applied to a series circuit that has a 160, 100, 82, and 120 ohm resistors within the circuit. What is the current flow through the circuit

Answer 1

Answer:

0.0519480519 A

Explanation:

First find equivalent resistance:

R series = R1 + R2 + R3 ...

$R_{eq} = 160+100+82+120=462ohms$

Now calculate current:

V = IR

$I = \frac{V}{R}$

$I= \frac{24}{462} = 0.0519480519 A$
