Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A circuit with a 12 V source has three resistors of 150 Ω, 300 Ω, and 450 Ω in series. Calculate the total voltage drop across each resistor and the current in the circuit.

💡 Hint: Use Ohm's Law and remember to apply it to each resistor.

Challenge 2 Hard

For a parallel circuit containing two resistors of 100 Ω and 200 Ω in parallel with a 20 V battery, find the total current and voltage across each branch.

💡 Hint: Calculate the equivalent resistance first.
