Answer to Question #313467 in Electric Circuits for Archi

Question

3. A triangular array of resistors is shown in the figure on the

right. What current will this array draw from a 35.0V battery

having negligible internal resistance if we connect it across

a.) ab;

b.) bc and

c.) ac?

Answer 1

Answer

Using ohm's law

$V=IR$

V is voltage, I current, R is resistance.

If resistance are in series the equivalent resistance is

$R=R_1+R_2......$
