Question

1/4 points 1 Previous Answers OSColPhys1 21 P.009 WA My Notes Ask Your Teacher (a) What is the equivalent resistance of four resistors connected in series with a 15.0-V battery if each resistor has a value of 14.0 0? 56 (b) Determine the current flowing through each of the four resistors. 3.64 x What is the total current delivered by the bettery to the circuit? How does the current through each resistor compare to the current from the battery in a series circuit? A (c) If the four resistors were instead connected in parallel across the battery, what would be the equivalent resistance? (d) Determine the current through each resistor for this parallel connection. Supporting Materials Physical Constants

Explanation / Answer

b) current through each of the resistor = 15/56=0.268 amperes

c) Let equivalent resistnace be R

1/R = 1/14 + 1/14 + 1/14 + 1/14

R=3.5 Ohms

d)Current through each resistor = 15/14=1.07 amperes
