The Tradition of Sharing

Help your friends and juniors by posting answers to the questions that you know. Also post questions that are not available.

To start with, Sr2Jr’s first step is to reduce the expenses related to education. To achieve this goal Sr2Jr organized the textbook’s question and answers. Sr2Jr is community based and need your support to fill the question and answers. The question and answers posted will be available free of cost to all.

The pleasure of all reading is doubled when one lives with another who shares the same. -Katherine Mansfield

Answer

2.4                                               

                                             5 ohms   

                      6A                                   0.25S

 

                                    figure2.4

Given that

              current

              Resistance

                             

                                

we know that

voltage across the resistor  is

                                                 =

                                                

voltage across the resistor is

                                                

                                                

power dissipated in the resistor  is

                                                       

                                                        W

power dissipated in the resistor  is
