Electric Energy
Energy work is done whenever power is used at a
definite time. Energy dispatched dependent on the
amount of power applied as well as the time consumed
performing certain task.
Energy= power x time
Unit: Watts*sec. = kWh

Example 1
Two equal resistances draw 10A from 100V source
while connected in series. How much current will they
draw from the source if the resistances are connected
in parallel.
a. 10A
b. 20A
c. 30A
d. 40A
Example 1
Two equal resistances draw 10A from 100V source
while connected in series. How much current will they
draw from the source if the resistances are connected
in parallel.
Solution: R= V/I= 100/10= 10 ohm
For two equal R, then 10/2= 5 ohm of each R
-In parallel, two 5 ohm is equivalent to 2.5 ohm
I= 100/2.5 = 40A
