Three resistors having resistances of 1.60 , 2.40 , and
Chapter 26, Problem 8E(choose chapter or problem)
Three resistors having resistances of 1.60 \(\Omega\), 2.40 \(\Omega\), and 4.80 \(\Omega\) are connected in parallel to a 28.0-V battery that has negligible internal resistance. Find
(a) the equivalent resistance of the combination;
(b) the current in each resistor;
(c) the total current through the battery;
(d) the voltage across each resistor;
(e) the power dissipated in each resistor.
(f) Which resistor dissipates the most power: the one with the greatest resistance or the least resistance? Explain why this should be.
