Practice Questions:

Q: A 9A current flows through a wire with a resistance of 0.5Ω . Find the power
generated by this current.

Q: A low resistance light bulb and a high resistance light bulb are connected in parallel
with each other. This parallel combination is in series with a 12V battery. Which bulb is
brighter - EXPLAIN.

Q: During the cold winter months, some gloves have the ability to provide extra warmth
due to an internal heating source. A simplified circuit, similar to those in electric gloves,
is comprised of a 9V battery with no internal resistance and three resistors as shown in
the image below.

How much power does the circuit provide?


Q: What is the resistance in a wire carrying a voltage of 10V and with a power of 4W?
Q: A circuit with two resistors (Resistor A and Resistor B) of equal resistance set up in
parallel is attached to a battery with negligible internal resistance. What will happen to
the voltage across resistor A if resistor B is removed?
(The wire of the circuit that resistor B is on will remain, however).

Q:

Given that the resistance of resisitor R = 2Ω, what is the voltage across the 4 Ω resistor in
the circuit shown below?
