Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You have three 12V batteries in series with internal resistances of 1Ξ© each, connected to a 5Ξ© load. What is the total voltage across the load and what current flows?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Don’t forget to add the internal resistances when calculating total resistance.

Question 2

In a parallel arrangement, you connect a 9V battery with a 2Ξ© internal resistance and two identical batteries with 3Ξ© each. What is the equivalent internal resistance?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember to use the formula for parallel resistances.
