Question

Homework 50hapter 18 x c www.webassign net/web/student/Assignment Responsesnastrdep 15aa2 46 D 18 Pa 2.00 n, and R2 6.84 m.) Consider the following figure. (Assume 5000 4.00 n (a) ts it possible to reduce the dreut shown in the figure above to a single equivalent resistor connected across the battery? Explain This answer has not been graded yet (b) And the ourrent le the 2.00 resister. Your response differs from the correct answer by more than 100 delivered by the battery to the circuit. Calculate the power Need Help? F8

Explanation / Answer

a) Yes, It is possible

We can reduce the circuit by calculating equivalent resistance

b) 3.00 ohms and R2 are in parallel = [1/3 + 1/6.84]-1 = 2.085 ohms

Requ = 2.085 + 2.0 + 4.0 = 8.085 ohms

I = V / R = 13 / 8.085 = 1.61 A

c) P = V I = 13 * 1.61

= 20.93 W
