Question

A 10.0 Ω resistor is in parallel with a 20.0 Ω resistor and supplied by a 9.00 V battery. What is the total current passing through the circuit?

A. 0.38 A
B. 1.35 A
C. 1.13 A
D. 6.00 A

Answer 1

the total or equivalent resistance is:
\[\Large {R_{EQ}} = \frac{1}{{\frac{1}{{10}} + \frac{1}{{20}}}} = ...\Omega \]

Answer 2

6.6666666?

Answer 3

ok!

Answer 4

so the total current is:
I=90/6.67=...amperes

Answer 5

13.49?

Answer 6

ok! More precisely it is 13.5 amperes

Answer 7

ohh my choices gives me 1.35 A.. would that be the solutoin?

Answer 8

sorry, it is:
9/6.67 which is equal to 1.35 amperes

Answer 9

oh okay! yay! thanks!!:D

Answer 10
