(1.0 amps)
The total resistance in the circuit above may be calculated by using
the formula
Rt = R1 + R2 + R3
= 10 ohms + 10 ohms + 5 ohms
Rt = 25 ohms
The total resistance in the circuit above may also be calculated by
using the formula derived from Ohm's law:
Rt = Et
It
= 100 volts
4 amps
Rt = 25 ohms
