Question

A parallel combination of two resistors, of 1 capital omega each, is connected in series with a 1.5 capital omega resistor. The total combination is connected across a 10 V battery. The current flowing in the circuit is

  1. 5 A    
  2. 20 A    
  3. 0.2 A    
  4. 0.4 A    

The correct answer is: 5 A


    i equals fraction numerator 10 over denominator 1.5 plus open parentheses 1 vertical line vertical line 1 close parentheses end fraction equals fraction numerator 10 over denominator 1.5 plus 0.5 end fraction equals 5 A
