help please

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Use the equation V=IR I=current R=resistance V=voltage

OpenStudy (selfconfidence777):

i dont know the answer thoe

OpenStudy (abhisar):

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

OpenStudy (selfconfidence777):

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?

OpenStudy (selfconfidence777):

lol nooo

OpenStudy (selfconfidence777):

please help

imqwerty (imqwerty):

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
