Answer:
the total resistance of the circuit =20Ω+4Ω=24Ω
b). The current through the circuit= current through the bulb= current through the conductor.
The current through the circuit=
the voltage of the battery
voltage applied
.
the current through the circuit =
24
6
amp
The current through the circuit = 0.25amp
c). The potential difference across the lamp and the conductor.
(i) The potential difference across the electrical lamp =0.25×20=5volt
(ii) The potential difference conductor =0.25×4=1 volt
d). Power can be calculated as
current through the lamp
voltage across the lamp
power=
0.25

→20W
Answer:
potential difference across the conductors is V ² = IR2 = 0.25 A× 4 ohms = 1 volt
