Answer:
<em>The power delivered by the battery is 17.04 W</em>
Explanation:
Power through a circuit is given as
P = IV ....1
where P is the power
I is the current through the circuit
V is the voltage through the circuit
The voltage in a circuit is given as
V = IR ....2
Let us take the value of each resistor as equal to R
when connected in series, the total resistance will be
= R + R = 2R
If we assume constant voltage through the circuit, then from equation 2, the current in this case is
I = V/2R
If the resistors are connected in parallel, then the total resistance will be
=
+
= R/2
The current in this case will be increased since the resistance is reduced
I = 2V/R
comparing the two situations, we can see that the current increased when connected in parallel to a ratio of
÷
=
This means that the current increased 4 times
From equation 1, we can see that electrical power is proportional to the current at a constant voltage, therefore, the power will also increase by four times to
P = 4 x 4.26 = <em>17.04 W</em>
