Question
Consider the following figure. (Assume R1 = 20.0 Ω, R2 = 8.0 Ω, and V = 18 V.)
(a) Find the current in each resistor of the figure above by using the rules for resistors in series and parallel. 8.0 Ω A 20.0 Ω A 24 Ω A
(b) Write three independent equations for the three currents using Kirchoff's laws: one with the node rule; a second using the loop rule through the battery, the 8.0-Ω resistor, and the 24.0-Ω resistor; and the third using the loop rule through the 20.0-Ω and 24.0-Ω resistors. Solve to check the answers found in part (a).
