Expert Answer



Given: The resistance of R1 is 5 ? and R2 is 10 ? R2 is made of nichrome wire ( resistivity of 1.5 * 10 ^(-2)

?m that is 8 m long and has a cross-sectional area of (6 x 10^(-6) m^2). The voltage of the battery is 12V


a) To find the resistance of the wire that makes R2:



Here To find the resistance of the wire that makes R, we need to use the formula:

Resistance = (resistivity x length) / area

Resistance of R2 = (1.5 x 10^(-2) ?m x 8m) / (6 x 10^(-6) m^2)
Resistance of R2 = 200 ?

So the total resistance of the circuit is:

R = R1 + R2 = 5? + 200? = 205?
