Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a circuit with a 5V battery and two resistors in parallel (5Ω and 10Ω), what is the current through the 10Ω resistor?
  • Step 1: Identify the voltage of the battery, which is 5V.
  • Step 2: Identify the resistance of the resistor we are interested in, which is 10Ω.
  • Step 3: Use Ohm's Law, which states that current (I) equals voltage (V) divided by resistance (R).
  • Step 4: Plug in the values into the formula: I = V / R.
  • Step 5: Substitute the values: I = 5V / 10Ω.
  • Step 6: Calculate the current: I = 0.5A.
