Two identical resistors are connected in parallel across a 22-V battery, which supplies them with a total power of 8.3 W. While the battery is still connected, one of the resistors is heated so that its resistance doubles. The resistance of the other resistor remains unchanged. Find (a) the initial resistance of each resistor, and (b) the total power delivered to the resistors after one resistor has been heated.

Two resistors, one of 5 ohms and the other of 3 ohms, are connected in series to a 6V battery. (a) What is the resistance of the combination? (b) What is the potential difference across each resistor? (c) What is the total current passing through the circuit? (d)What is the current passing through each resistor? Repeat the calculations for the two resistors connected in parallel. Show your work.

An ideal voltmeter connected across a certain 9-V fresh battery reads 9.30 V, and an ideal ammeter briefly connected across the same battery reads 3.70 A. We say the battery has an open-circuit voltage of 9.30 V and a short-circuit current of 3.70 A. Model the battery as a source of emf ε in series with an internal resistance r. Determine both (a) ε and (b) r. An experimenter connects two of these identical batteries together as shown in the figure below. Find (c) the open-circuit voltage and (d) the short-circuit current of the pair of connected batteries. (e) The experimenter connects a 12.0-Ω resistor between the exposed terminals of the connected batteries Find the current in the resistor. (f) Find the power delivered to the resistor. (g) The experimenter connects a second identical resistor in parallel with the first. Find the power delivered to each resistor. (h) Because the same pair of batteries is connected across both resistors as was connected across the single resistor, why is the power in part (g) not the same as that in part (f)?
