Two resistors of values 7.0 and 15.0 Ω are connected in parallel. This combination in turn is hooked in series with a 3.8- Ω resistor and a 22.3-V battery. What is the current in the 3.8- Ω resistor?

1.8A

Explanation:

Firstly, we need to find the effective resistance in the circuit.

For the two parallel resistors, the effective resistance is;

1/R = 1/7 + 1/15

R = 8.57Ω

Now let's connect it in series with the series resistor

R = 8.57 + 3.8 = 12.37Ω

This is the total effective resistance

The total current is therefore

22.3/8.57 = 1.8A

This is also the current flowing through the 3.8 resistor since it is connected in series

sorry what a asnns

explanation:

the warning light flashes for a second or two when the engine starts. if it stays on, there's must be something wrong with the coolant. you should never dare to continue driving when the light is on. pull over as soon as possible and shut the engine off.

hope this is what you're talking about
