If the resistor is in series with the rest of the circuit then a is the correct answer. The voltage across the resistor in series with another resistor is

where R is the big resistor and r is the small one and V is the total voltage drop across both. This is called a voltage divider
Answer:
- 2.7 x 10^-6 J
Explanation:
q1 = 1 nC at x = 0 cm
q2 = - 1 nC at x = 1 cm
q3 = 4 nC at x = 2 cm
The formula for the potential energy between the two charges is given by

where r be the distance between the two charges
By use of superposition principle, the total energy of the system is given by



U = - 2.7 x 10^-6 J
Answer:

Explanation:
The three resistors are connected in parallel: this means that the potential difference across each resistor is the same as the voltage of the battery. This can be calculated using the information about the
resistor: in fact, since we know its resistance and the current flowing through it (0.155 A), we can find the potential difference across this resistor, which is equal to the voltage of the battery:

We also know the total current in the circuit, 0.250 A. This means that we can find the total resistance of the circuit, using Ohm's law:

So now we now the total resistance and the resistance of two of the 3 resistors; therefore, we can find the resistance of the 3rd resistor:
