Answer:

R = 0.24 kilo-ohm

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage, V = 12 volt

Current, I = 50 mA = 0.05 A

We need to find the resistance of the resistor. We can find it using Ohm's law. So,

V = IR

$R=\dfrac{V}{I}\\\\R=\dfrac{12}{0.05}\\\\R=240\ \Omega$

R = 0.24 kohm

So, the value of resistance is 0.24 kilo-ohm.

Current and voltage on each resistor:

$I_1 = 3.98 A, V_1 = 3.98 V$

$I_2=0.015 A, V_2 = 0.075 V$

$I_3 = 0.4 A, V_3 = 0.4 V$

$I_4 = 0.385 A, V_4 = 0.77 V$

$I_5 = 0.585 A, V_5 = 1.17 V$

$I_6 = 3.01 A, V_6 = 6.02 V$

$I_7 = 0.97 A, V_7 = 4.85 V$

Explanation:

In order to solve the circuit, we first have to find the equivalent resistance of the whole circuit, then the total current, and then we can proceed finding the current and the voltage for each resistor.

We start by calculating the equivalent resistance of resistors 2 and 3, which are in parallel:

$R_{23}=\frac{R_2R_3}{R_2+R_3}=\frac{(5)(1)}{5+1}=0.833\Omega$

This resistor is in series with resistor 4, so:

$R_{234}=R_{23}+R_4=0.833+2.0=2.833\Omega$

This resistor is in parallel with resistor 5, therefore:

$R_{2345}=\frac{R_{234}R_5}{R_{234}+R_5}=\frac{(2.833)(2.0)}{2.833+2.0}=1.172\Omega$

This resistor is in series with resistor 7, so:

$R_{23457}=R_{2345}+R_7=1.172+5.0=6.172\Omega$

This resistor is in parallel with resistor 6, so:

$R_{234567}=\frac{R_{23457}R_6}{R_{23457}+R_6}=\frac{(6.172)(2.0)}{6.172+2.0}=1.510\Omega$

Finally, this combination is in series with resistor 1:

$R_{eq}=R_1+R_{234567}=1.0+1.510=2.510\Omega$

We finally found the equivalent resistance of the circuit. Now we can find the total current in the circuit, which is also the current flowing through resistor 1:

$I_1=\frac{V}{R_{eq}}=\frac{10}{2.510}=3.98 A$
