A 50-Ω Resistor and a 9

question 5

Short Answer

A 5.0-Ω resistor and a 9.0-Ω resistor are connected in parallel.A 4.0-Ω resistor is then connected in series with this parallel combination.An ideal 6.0-V battery is then connected across the series-parallel combination of the three resistors.What is the current through
(a)the 4.0-Ω resistor?
(b)the 5.0-Ω resistor?
(c)the 9.0-Ω resistor?
