R1=2Ω
It
R3=6Ω
Solution:
SEATWORK
1. A series circuit has a 50Ω, a 75Ω, and a 100Ωresistors in series. Find the
total resistance in the circuit.
2. A series circuit has 6V across R1,30V acrossR2, and 54 volts across R3.
What is the total voltage across the circuit?
3. A resistor of 45Ω and a bell of 60Ωare connected in series. What voltage
is required across this combination to produce a current of 0.3A.
4. A 95V battery is connected in series with three resistors. Find the
voltage across each resistor?
5. The hot resistance of an incandescent lamp is 10Ωand the rated voltage
is 50V.Find the series resistance required to operate the lamp from an
80V supply?
Note: Copy and answer and support the problems with circuit diagram
and label the pertinent parts.
