Explanation / Answer


1) R123 = 4+8+24 = 36 ohms

correct option is (D)

2) 1/R = 1/6 +1/8 +1/24

R = 3 ohms

correct option is (E)

3) R12 = 4*4/(4+4) = 2 ohms

R123 = 2 + 3 = 5 ohms

correct option is (D)

4) 1/R234 = 1/4 +1/6 +1/12

R234 = 2 ohms

R1234 = 2+2 = 4 ohms

correct option is (A)


5) Req = R/3

V = 12*R/3

I1 = I2 = I3 =V/R = 12*R/3R = 4 A

correct option is (A)

6) R1234 = 12+3+5+4 = 24 ohms

V = 12 V

I = 12/24 = 0.5 A

correct otpion is (D)


7) R12 = 4*4/(4+4) = 2 ohms

R123 = 2+3 = 5 ohms

correct option is (E)

8)R12 = 3*6/(3+6) = 2 ohms

R123 = 2+3 = 5ohms

I123 = 12/5 = 2.4 A

in series combination current is constant

I12 = 2.4 A

V12 = 2.4*2 = 4.8 V

In parallel combinaiton voltage is constant

P1 = v1^2/R1 = 4.8^2/3 = 7.7 W

correct optin is (D)


VA - VB = 8 -10*5 -13 = -55 V

correct option is (E)
