Question 39
Current ElectricityIn Fig. 4 above, a voltage V is applied across the terminals P and Q. The voltage across the 1 Ω resistor is
- A.V/8
- B.V/4
- C.V/3
- D.V/2
Show the answer and explanation
Answer: C (V/3)
Explanation
The two 4 Ω in parallel give 2 Ω, so the total is 3 Ω. The 1 Ω resistor takes 1/3 of the voltage: V/3.
