A voltage divider of 50 ohms is connected across a 100 V DC source. A load resistance of 10 ohms is connected across a tap in the potential divider and the negative of the source. If a current of 4 A flows towards the load, what is the current supplied by the source? (Remember, a voltage divider is a network of resistors that are connected in series the purpose of which is to divide a voltage into each of the resistors.) Show complete solution.

By moving the slider, one can change the length of wire involved, thus changing the resistance. Imagine a tube of wire with one layer made from wire 1.00 mm in diameter wrapped in a single layer with no gaps between the loops of wire ( the wire looks like a solid layer down the length of the tube). The radius of the tube is 2.50 cm. Moving the slider 1.00 cm changes the resistance of the variable resistor by 3.00 Ohms.
