Calculate the total resistance of the circuit. Calculate the current flowing in the \({3}\Omega\) resistor. Calculate the voltage across the \({8}\Omega\) resistor. Calculate the current flowing in ...

A handy nomograph quickly determines the equivalent resistance of two parallel resistors. Although you could use the standard formula and a calculator, the nomograph also lets you easily find ...

This resistor with bands of red, violet, yellow, and gold has a value of 270,000 ohms (270kΩ) with a tolerance of ±5%. \( \begin{eqnarray*}\text{R}_\text{t} &=& \frac{3.9 \times 6.8}{3.9 + 6.8} \\ &=& ...
