1.

An electric heater of resistance 10Ω and resistance of the wine 8Ω are connected in series with a 6 volt battery find. 1. Current through circuits 2. Potential across the heater3. Potential across the wire

Answer»

10Ω resistance and 8Ω resistance are connected in series.

R = R1 + R2

R = 10 + 8

R = 18Ω

(i) Current through circuit

V = IR

I = \(\frac{V}R\)

I = 6/18

I = \(\frac13\) ampeare

(ii) Potential across the heater

V = IR

V = 1/3 x 10

V = 10/3 v

(iii) Potential across the wire

V = IR

V = 1/3 x 8

V = 8/3 v
