b

jennylove:

not sure if i even have to ask this one , ! lol just want to make sure since i seem ti be getting confused

TheSmartOne:

P = V^2/R so lowest resistance would give us the most power And vice versa

jennylove:

oh wait nvm its for power

jennylove:

ohh yes yes , so it is r2

jennylove:

thank you

TheSmartOne:

Nope @jennylove We're looking for least power so the largest resistance

jennylove:

welp , i read it wrong it would be r3 ?

TheSmartOne:

Yep!

jennylove:

i see that now , that was to small to have not seen that, im sorry!

TheSmartOne:

No worries!
