connected in parallel to a 220 V source. What is the resistance of an electric iron connected to the
same source that takes as much current as all three appliances, and what is the current through it?
2. How can three resistors of resistances 2 Ω, 3 Ω and 6 Ω be connected to give a total resistance of (a) 4
Ω, (b) 1 Ω?
3. What is (a) the highest, (b) the lowest total resistance that can be secured by combinations of four
coils of resistance 4 Ω, 8 Ω, 12 Ω, 24 Ω?
4. For the circuit shown in below Figure, determine (a) the battery voltage V, (b) the total resistance of
the circuit, and (c) the values of resistance of resistors R1, R2 and R3, given that the potential difference
across R1, R2 and R3 are 5 V, 2 V and 6 V respectively.
5. For the circuit shown in below Figure, determine the p.d. across resistor R3. If the total resistance of
