Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

In a circuit with three sources - 12V, 5V, and 9V connected to a total resistance of 10Ω, calculate the total current using the Superposition Theorem. Show each step.

💡 Hint: Take it step-by-step, analyzing the impact of each source independently.

Challenge 2 Hard

A circuit has two batteries, 10V and 20V, connected to a 5Ω resistor. Using the Superposition Theorem, calculate the voltage across the resistor. What steps must you take, and what should the final answer be?

💡 Hint: Analyze the circuit component by component, focusing on the contribution of each voltage source.
