help please
OpenStudy (abhisar):
Use the equation V=IR
I=current
R=resistance
V=voltage
OpenStudy (selfconfidence777):
i dont know the answer thoe

Just plug in the values and solve for I. Note that since there are two bulbs of 100 ohms each so total resistance will be 200 ohms.
OpenStudy (selfconfidence777):
400?
OpenStudy (abhisar):
no
OpenStudy (abhisar):
V=IR
=> I = V/R
OpenStudy (selfconfidence777):
300

wait so the answer is i v r
OpenStudy (abhisar):
No, what is the voltage?
OpenStudy (selfconfidence777):
dude i guessed
OpenStudy (selfconfidence777):
Protons have positive charge, neutrons have negative charge, and electrons have no charge.
A. True
B. False

A complete electric circuit includes a voltage source, current, wires, and something to _________ the flow of current

Voltage=Equivalent resistance x Current
ur given voltage=2V
and u have 2 bulbs each having resistance =100ohm nd connected in series so can u find out the equivalent resistance?
OpenStudy (selfconfidence777):
wait so whats the answer?

haha :) to get the answer u need to tell what is the equivalent resistance :) do u knw how to find that?

please help

ok cause the 2 bulbs r connected in series the equivalent resistance would be the sum of their resistances
so equivalent resistance =100+100=200ohms
so plug V=2 and equi. resistance=200 into the formula u get-
2=200*current
divide both sides by 200 u get -
2/200=200*current/200
0.01=current
