Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
You have a circuit with three resistors in a series, R1 = 5Ω, R2 = 10Ω, and R3 = 15Ω. If the circuit has a voltage of 30V, calculate the total current flowing in the circuit.
💡 Hint: Use Ohm's law to find the current after calculating total resistance.
A combination circuit consists of two resistors in series (R1=6Ω, R2=2Ω) and a parallel connection with another resistor R3=4Ω. What is the total resistance of the circuit?
💡 Hint: Calculate the equivalent resistance for the parallel section and then combine with the series.
