Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You have a circuit with a 12V battery and two resistors in series (4Ξ© and 8Ξ©). Calculate the current flowing through the circuit.

πŸ’‘ Hint: First find the total resistance, then use the current formula.

Question 2

In a parallel circuit with three resistors (2Ξ©, 6Ξ©, and 3Ξ©), a voltage of 9V is applied. Calculate the total current flowing through the circuit.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Use the reciprocal formula for resistors in parallel to find total resistance.
