A circuit contains two 1.5 volt battery and a bulb with a resistance of 3 ohms. Calculate the current

Sagot :

Answer:

The current is 1 A

Explanation:

Current in a Series Connection

When two or more elements are connected in series, all of them have the same current, and the sum of their individual voltages is the total voltage applied to the circuit.

According to Ohm's law:

V=R.I

Where V is the voltage, R is the resistance and I is the current of a circuit.

We have a voltage of V=1.5 V + 1.5 V = 3 V and a resistance of R=3 ohms.

We can calculate the current by solving for I:

[tex]\displaystyle I=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{3}{3}=1\ A[/tex]

The current is 1 A
