Homework Statement
The circuit shown in the figure below is connected for 2.10 min. (Assume R1 = 6.00 Ω, R2 = 1.60 Ω, and V = 16.0 V.)
(a) Determine the current in each branch of the circuit. *already did*
(b) Find the energy delivered by each battery.
(c) Find the energy delivered to each resistor.
(d) Identify the type of energy storage transformation that occurs in the operation of the circuit.
(e) Find the total amount of energy transformed into internal energy in the resistors.
Homework Equations
*Not even sure*
Summation of current through junction = 0
Summation of potential difference in loop = 0
ΔV = IR
U = ΔV / q ?
ΔU + ΔEint = 0 ?
The Attempt at a Solution
Just need help with parts after A, not sure where to start with regards to them.
I already solved for part A with Kirchoff's rules, the currents are:
I (left wire / branch) = 1.254 A down
I (middle wire / branch) = 0.58 A down
I (right wire / branch) = 1.842 A up
any help is appreciated.
