Two simple closed circuits are constructed. Circuit A has a 6 V battery and a resistor
on the wire drawing 24 n. Circuit B has the same voltage with a current of 0.3 A. If
you compare the two circuits, which statement is correct about the amount of
current?

Respuesta :

Answer:

A carries smaller amount of current than B.

Explanation:

  • Since there are two closed circuit, we can say that there is parallel connection between them.
  • In parallel connection circuit, voltage across them is same but have different amount of current flowing through them.
  • Voltage drop across any node is given by V=IR, V=voltage drop, I=current , R=resistance.
  • So in first circuit V=6 and R=24 by calculating we get I=0.25.
  • Current flowing in 2nd circuit is 0.3 and current flowing in 1st is 0.25.So, current flowing in A is smaller than in B.
