Book Free DemoCompare the power used in the 2\ Ω resistor in each of the following circuits:
(i) a 6\ V battery in series with 1\ Ω and 2\ Ω resistors, and
(ii) a 4\ V battery in parallel with 12\ Ω and 2\ Ω resistors.
(i) a 6\ V battery in series with 1\ Ω and 2\ Ω resistors, and
(ii) a 4\ V battery in parallel with 12\ Ω and 2\ Ω resistors.
(i) Potential difference = 6\ V
The two resistors 1\ Ω and 2\ Ω are connected in series. Hence, the equivalent resistance is .
According to Ohm’s law, the current can be calculated using the formula
On substituting the known values, we get .
The formula to calculate power is given as
On substituting the known values, the power consumed by 2\ Ω resistor is .
(ii) Potential difference = 4\ V
The power consumed by 2\ Ω resistor is
On substituting the known values, the power consumed by 2\ Ω resistor is . From both the circuits, it can be seen that 2\ Ω resistors uses .
