(III) Three equal resistors (R) are connected to a battery

Chapter 19, Problem 22P

(choose chapter or problem)

(III) Three equal resistors (R) are connected to a battery as shown in Fig. 19–51. Qualitatively, what happens to () the voltage drop across each of these resistors, (b) the current flow through each, and (c) the terminal voltage of the battery, when the switch S is opened, after having been

closed for a long time? (d) If the emf of the battery is 9.0 V, what is its terminal voltage when the switch is closed if the internal resistance r is \(0.50 \Omega\) and \(R=5.50 \Omega\)? (e) What is the terminal voltage when the switch is open?

0.50 Omega

R=5.50 Omega
