Find The Current And Voltage Across Each Resistor In The Given Circuit class=

Sagot :

Answer:

  • R1, R4: 1.3433 V
  • R2: 0 V
  • R3: 6.3134 V

Explanation:

The resistor R2 is shorted out, so is not in the circuit. The remaining resistors are in a series circuit with a total resistance of ...

  R1 +R3 +R4 = 1k +4.7k +1k = 6.7k

The current is the ratio of the applied voltage to this total resistance:

  I = V/R = (9 v)/(6.7k) ≈ 1.3433 mA

The voltage across each resistor is the product of this current value and the resistance:

  R1 voltage = (1 kΩ)(1.3433 mA) = 1.3433 volts

  R2 voltage = 0

  R3 voltage = (4.7 kΩ)(1.3433 mA) = 6.3134 volts

  R4 voltage = (1 kΩ)(1.3433 mA) = 1.3433 volts
