Question

Transcribed Image Text:Two resistors have resistances R(smaller) and
R(larger), where R(smaller) < R(larger). When the
resistors are connected in series to a 12.0-V battery,
the current from the battery is 1.15 A. When the
resistors are connected in parallel to the battery, the
total current from the battery is 11.6 A. Determine
the two resistances.
