Question

Consider the three circuits shown above. All the resistors and all the batteries are identical. The total power dissipated in circuit C is twice the total power dissipated in circuit B. The voltage across a single resistor in circuit C is twice the voltage across a single resistor in circuit B. The power dissipated in circuit A is twice the power dissipated in circuit B. The current through a resistor is the same in circuits A and B. The current through a resistor is the same in circuits A and C.

Explanation / Answer

1   False . C uses 4 times the power of B

2   True

3   True

4 5. False . Current in A is twice the current in B

5   True
