Problem 91GP
CE Two resistors, R1 = R and R2 = 2R, are connected to a battery.
(a) Which resistor dissipates more power when they are connected to the battery in series? Explain,
(b) Which resistor dissipates more power when they aie connected in parallel? Explain.
ANSWER:
Solution 91GP
Step 1 of 4
(a)
Here we need find which of the given two resistors and when connected to the battery in series will dissipate more power.
According to KCL or loop law, when resistors are connected in series, the current flowing through all the resistors will be same.
