?
d) any attempts so far? it's pretty much like the picture in g except without the switch and resistor C
|dw:1523652223342:dw|
something like that anyway for e) what's the resistance for two resistors (3 and 6) in series?
i would do 3 and 6 so it would be
do you remember what the rule is for resistors in series?
|dw:1523652901275:dw|
oh okay, yeah I forgot about that
so 3^2+6^2
you just add them, you don't have to square them
3 + 6 = 9 ohms = your sol'n
wait wait wait
they're in parallel whoops
so 1/T = 1/3 + 1/6 solve for T
t=2?
good so total resistance = 2ohms
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
for g) which resistor(s) stop working when the switch is opened?
All of them
well done
