Answer:
4A
Explanation:
According to ohm's law;
E = IRt where;
E is the source voltage = 24volts
I is the total current flowing in the circuit = ?
Rt is the total effective resistance in the circuit.
To find Rt, we will resolve the resistors in parallel first.
Since 6ohms and 12ohms resistors are in parallel, their effective resistance will give;
1/R = 1/6+1/12
1/R= 2+1/12
1/R = 3/12
3R = 12
R = 4ohms.
This resistor will now be in series with the 2.0ohms resistor to finally have;
Rt = 4+2
Rt = 6ohms
From the ohms law formula;
I = E/Rt
I = 24/6
I = 4Amperes
The total current in the circuit is 4A
This same currents will flow in the 2ohms resistor since same current flows in a series connected resistors.
