d) any attempts so far? it's pretty much like the picture in g except without the switch and resistor C

Vocaloid:

|dw:1523652223342:dw|

Vocaloid:

something like that anyway for e) what's the resistance for two resistors (3 and 6) in series?

zarkam21:

i would do 3 and 6 so it would be

Vocaloid:

do you remember what the rule is for resistors in series?

Vocaloid:

|dw:1523652901275:dw|

zarkam21:

oh okay, yeah I forgot about that

zarkam21:

so 3^2+6^2

Vocaloid:

you just add them, you don't have to square them

Vocaloid:

3 + 6 = 9 ohms = your sol'n

Vocaloid:

wait wait wait

Vocaloid:

they're in parallel whoops

Vocaloid:

so 1/T = 1/3 + 1/6 solve for T

zarkam21:

t=2?

Vocaloid:

good so total resistance = 2ohms

Vocaloid:

anyway for f) we kind of touched on this yesterday but it's a piece of metal that melts when the current becomes too high, opening the circuit

Vocaloid:

for g) which resistor(s) stop working when the switch is opened?

zarkam21:

All of them

Vocaloid:

well done
