ABSTRACT

Problem 2. For the circuit shown in Figure 36.3, determine the p.d. across resistor R3. If the total resistance of the circuit is 100 , determine the current flowing through resistor R1. Find also the value of resistor R2

P.d. across R3, V3 = 25 − 10 − 4 = 11 V

Current I = V R

= 25 100

= 0.25 A which is the current flowing in each resistor.
