QUIZ # 1

1. A 10-Ω and 15-Ω resistor are in series across a dc voltage source. If the 10-Ω resistor has a
voltage drop of 12 V, how much is the applied voltage? (5 points)

2. A 120 ohms resistor is in parallel with two resistors A and B of equal value in series with each
other. The entire system is connected across 240 volts source. If the current to the system is
8.0 amperes. Determine: a) The ohm of resistors A and B; b) The voltage across one of the
resistors. (10 points)

3. In the figure shown, determine: a) current I; b) If a short circuit occurs at R1, solve for current.
(5 points)

4. In the figure solve for the value of: a) total current b) power consume by the 1KΩ and 150Ω
resistors. (10 points)
