... The top branch of the 3-branched parallel block ... the 9 and 6 in series ...
is equivalent to a single resistor of 15 ohms.
... The 3-branched parallel block boils down to (30, 10, and 15) in parallel.
That's (1/30 + 1/10 + 1/15)⁻¹ = 5 ohms.
... The 5-ohm-equivalent block and the 20-ohm resistor form a
voltage divider across the battery.
The voltage across the 5-ohm-equivalent block is (5/25 x 30v) = 6v .
... The top branch of the block is equivalent to a (9 + 6) = 15-ohmer.
With 6v across its ends, the current through that branch is (6/15) = 0.4A .
... With 0.4A flowing through it, the 9-ohm resistor is dissipating
I²R = (0.4A)² (9 ohms) = (0.16 A²) (9 ohms) = 1.44 W (choice-3)
The player that possess the best ball handling skills and usually handles
the ball often is referred to as the point guard.
Point guards in basketball are referred to as the players who have certain
characteristics such as speed ,an excellent ball handling skills and
leadership qualities.
Point guards is similar to the creative midfielder in soccer which helps to
dictate play and create chances for other team mates which is why they
handle the ball often.
