A 2.0-ohm resistor is connected in series with a 20.0-V battery and a three-branch parallel network with branches whose resistances are 8.0 ohms each. Ignoring the battery's internal resistance, what is the current in the battery? Show your work.
I = V / R total resistance = 2 ohm + the total resistance of the 3 parallel resistances 1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 1/R = 1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8 = 3/8 R = 2.6667 So total Resistance of the circuit = 2.7 + 2.0 = 4.7 I = voltage /Reistance 20/4.7 = 4.25 A
yes that should be correct
The answer rounded to 3 decimal places is 4.286 A
