Three resistors of values 2 Q, 3 Q and 5 Q are connected in series with a battery of voltage 6.0 V. Calculate the current through each of the resistors, and the current through the battery.

Current = 0.6 A

Explanation:

Given that,

Three resistors 2 ohms, 3 ohms and 5 ohms are connected in series with a battery of voltage 6 V.

In series combination of resistors, the current through each resistor is the same while the voltage divides.

The equivalent resistance in this case is given by :

Put all the values,

Let I be the current. Using Ohm's law,

So, the current through each resistor and the current through the battery is equal to 0.6 A.

note: the given question is incomplete.

complete question is given below.

which is an example of kinetic energy?

a. the energy stored in ethanol  

b. a hockey puck sliding across the ice  

c. a compressed spring  

d. a ball sitting at the top of a ramp

solution: the kinetic energy is the energy posses by the virtue of the motion of the object.

in the given options, a, c and d are the example of potential energy because it is the energy posses by the virtue of the rest of the object. but option b has the kinetic energy as the object is in motion.

hence, a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the apex example of kinetic energy.

so, the option (b) a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the correct option.
