Simple Resistor Circui Due Wednesday, 05/17/2023 1. A simple series circuit is shown consisting of a batter with voltae V = 3.0volts, a resistor Ri = 100, and a second resistor R2 = 500. R1 R2 (a) (2 points) Use the idea that two resistors in series can be thought of as a single equivalent resistor with the value Req = Ri + R2 to find the equivalent resistance of the circuit. (b) (2 points) Re-draw the circuit diagram with this single equivalent resistor instead of the two original resistors. (c) (2 points) Find the current in the equivalent circuit. This is also the current in the original circuit. (d) (2 points) Using Ohm's Law (V = IR) relating the voltage across a resistor to the current passing through it, find the voltage drop across the 100 resistor. (e) (2 points) By the same technique find the voltage drop across the 500 resistor. (f) (2 points) What is the sum of the voltage drops across the two resistors
