The 26th is Fe(iron) and the 50th is Sn(tin)
A material that has high resistance to the flow of electric current is called an electric resistor
Answer:
R1 = 5.13 Ω
Explanation:
From Ohm's law,
V = IR............... Equation 1
Where V = Voltage, I = current, R = resistance.
From the question,
I = 2 A, R = R1
Substitute into equation 1
V = 2R1................ Equation 2
When a resistance of 2.2Ω is added in series with R1,
assuming the voltage source remain constant
R = 2.2+R1, and I = 1.4 A
V = 1.4(2.2+R1)................. Equation 3
Substitute the value of V into equation 3
2R1 = 1.4(2.2+R1)
2R1 = 3.08+1.4R1
2R1-1.4R1 = 3.08
0.6R1 = 3.08
R1 = 3.08/0.6
R1 = 5.13 Ω
