Solving Problems 14.1 & 14.2

1. A circuit contains 5-ohm, 3-ohm, and 8-ohm resistors in series. What is the total resistance of the circuit? Rt = R1 + R2 + R3 = 5 Ω + 3 Ω + 8 Ω Rt = 16 Ω

2. A circuit contains a 9 volt battery and two identical bulbs. What is the voltage drop across each? Vt = V1 + V2; V1 = V2 Vt = 2V1 9 volts = 2V1 V1 = 4.5 volts

3. A circuit contains a 12 volt battery and two 3- ohm bulbs in series. Draw a circuit diagram and use it to find the current in the circuit and the voltage drop across each bulb. Rt = R1 + R2 = 3 Ω + 3 Ω Rt = 6 Ω Since the current is the same everywhere in a series circuit: It = Vt ÷ Rt It = (12 V) ÷ (6 Ω) It = 2 amps Vt = V1 + V2; V1 = V2 12 volts = 2V1 V = 6 volts

4. A circuit contains a 12 volt battery and three 1-ohm bulbs in series. Draw the circuit diagram and find the current in the circuit. Rt = R1 + R2 + R3 = 1 Ω + 1 Ω + 1 Ω Rt = 3 Ω It = Vt ÷ Rt It = (12 V) ÷ (3 Ω) It = 4 amps

5. Calculate the total resistance of each circuit shown below. Then calculate the current in each. a. Rt = R1 + R2 = 1 Ω + 1 Ω Rt = 2 Ω It = Vt ÷ Rt It = (6 V) ÷ (2 Ω) It = 3 amps b. Rt = R1 + R2 = 3 Ω + 3 Ω Rt = 6 Ω It = Vt ÷ Rt It = (6 V) ÷ (6 Ω) It = 1 amps c. Rt = R1 + R2 + R3 = 1 Ω + 2 Ω + 3 Ω Rt = 6 Ω It = Vt ÷ Rt It = (12 V) ÷ (6 Ω) It = 2 amps

6. A circuit contains two 1-ohm bulbs in series. The current in the circuit is 1.5 amperes. What is the voltage provided by the batteries? Rt = R1 + R2 = 1 Ω + 1 Ω Rt = 2 Ω V = It × Rt V = (1.5 A) × (2 Ω) V = 3 volts

7. A circuit contains two identical resistors in series. The current is 3 amperes, and the batteries have a total voltage of 24 volts. What is the total resistance of the circuit? What is the resistance of each resistor? Rt = V/I Rt = (24 V)/(3 A) = 8 Ω R1 = R2 = Rt/2 = 8 Ω/2 = 4 Ω
