What is the total current going through the circuit shown? A. 0.28 A B. 0.80 A C. 3.6 A D. 4.0 A

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

here the total resistance is: \[\Large R = \frac{1}{{\frac{1}{{10}} + \frac{1}{5}}} = ...\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3.333 ?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

ok!

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

then, I apply the Ohm's law, and I get: \[\Large I = \frac{{\Delta V}}{R} = \frac{{12}}{{10.333}}\]

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

oops... \[\Large I = \frac{{\Delta V}}{R} = \frac{{12}}{{3.333}}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3.6? so choice C is our solution?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

that's right!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yay! thanks!:)

OpenStudy (michele_laino):
