Find the equivalent resistance between a and b. Also what is the current in the resistors?(7 resistors, 7 currents) V=24V over the circuit
@Michele_Laino
please wait a moment, someone is calling me to the phone
First of all I have just collected all the resistors and found out that\[R _{tot}=11.1 \Omega\] \[I=\frac{ V }{ R } >I=\frac{ 24V }{ 11.1\Omega }=2.2Ampere\]
then I have trouble to make kirchoff's second principle around the circuit to get the currents through the resistors..
Its allright, take your time:)
here I'm
I think that the requested resistance, is the resistance of the equivalent circuit
|dw:1430216090823:dw|
|dw:1430216183487:dw|
so Rtot is almost 2.3ohm?
and: \[\Large \frac{1}{{{R_{{\text{eq}}}}}} = \frac{5}{{28}} + \frac{2}{{11}}\]
I got: R_eq=2.77 ohm
when it is possible, is better to apply the Ohm's law, rather than the second Kirchhof's law
now, it is easy to compute the currents, which flow into the resistors
so I=8.6 ampere
