In addition to working on the lab, here are circuit questions to think about (A block - Wednesday; F-block - Thursday):
1. Consider 3 resistors in series with a 12-V battery, with resistances equal to 1, 2 and 3 ohms. Find the following:
a. total resistance
b. current from battery
c. current through each resistor
d. voltage over each resistor
2. Consider 3 resistors in parallel with a 12-V battery, with resistances equal to 1, 2 and 3 ohms. Find the following:
a. total resistance
b. current from battery
c. current through each resistor
d. voltage over each resistor
3. Imagine if you had a circuit with a 12-V battery in series with a 4-ohm resistor - and this is in series with a parallel combination of resistors (3 and 6 ohms). How would you treat this circuit, if you wanted to determine the total resistance, and all currents and voltages? Give this a shot, if you have time.
