Question

A series circuit has 4 identical lamps. The potential difference of the energy source is 60V. The total resistance of the lamps is 20 Ω. Calculate the current through each lamp.

Answer 1

Answer:

$I=3A$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Number of lamps $N=4$

Potential difference $V=60v$

Total Resistance of the lamp is $R= 20ohms$

Generally the equation for Current I is mathematically given by

 $I=\frac{V}{R}$

 $I=\frac{60}{20}$

 $I=3A$
