Problem 12-22 Simple circuit - A

In the figure, what are
(a) the current through the $47\; \Omega$ resistor?
(b) the direction of the current through the $47\; \Omega$ resistor?
(c) the potential difference $V_A - V_B$?  $V_B - V_A$?
(d) the voltage across the $84\;  \Omega$  resistor?
(e) the potential at point $C$, if we define the potential at the negative terminal of the battery to be zero?

Accumulated Solution

Correct

The total current in the circuit is given by:

(A)   $I = R/V$

(B)   $I = RV$

(C)   $I = V/R$
