Series Circuits Problems
1. For the above circuit find the following unknown values and
show all your work step-by step
| GIVEN |
FIND |
FIND |
| ITotal = 2 A |
VTotal= ? |
RTotal = ? |
| V1 = 2 V |
R 1 = ? |
V2 = |
| R2 = 10
Ω |
I1 = ? |
I2 = ? |
2. Calculate the total power used by the above circuit
3. Add a third resistor in series to the above circuit.
The value of this resistor is R3 = 10
Ω.
The value of the current stays the same (ITotal = 2 A).
Recalculate all the values in the table above and the value of V3 and
I3.
