Question: In circuit shown, R1=R2=R and epsilon2=(epsilon1)/2. The power dissipated in R1 is 20 W. Does battery Epsilon1 supply or absorb energy, what is the rate of energy Epsilon1 exchanges with the circuit? Assume that the batteries are ideal.
Ohm's law
Ohm’s law is a prominent concept in physics and electronics. It gives the relation between the current and the voltage. It is used to analyze and construct electrical circuits. Ohm's law states that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it.
Path of Least Resistance
In a series of alternate pathways, the direction of least resistance is the actual or metaphorical route that offers the least resistance to forwarding motion by a given individual or body.
