Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a series circuit, if the total voltage is 12V and the resistances are 2Ω and 4Ω, what is the current flowing through the circuit?
  • Step 1: Identify the total voltage in the circuit, which is given as 12V.
  • Step 2: Identify the resistances in the circuit, which are 2Ω and 4Ω.
  • Step 3: Calculate the total resistance by adding the individual resistances: 2Ω + 4Ω = 6Ω.
  • Step 4: Use Ohm's Law to find the current. Ohm's Law states that current (I) equals voltage (V) divided by resistance (R).
  • Step 5: Substitute the values into the formula: I = 12V / 6Ω.
  • Step 6: Calculate the current: I = 2A.
