Homework Statement
Two parallel connected batteries with internal electrical resistances R1 and R2 are connected with a resistance R of 5 ohm. Which electric current flows through R.
Homework Equations
U=I*R
U= voltage
R= resistance
I= electric current
The Attempt at a Solution
Hi everyone,
I have some trouble with this exercise as I'm fairly new to electrodynamics. The only idea I got so far was to sum the resistances as you do it when they are parallel connected:
1/R=1/R1+1/R2...
But then I have no idea how to go on. I could just calculate the R and insert it to the given formula I wrote down, but I'm far away from a specific answer to my question.
Can anyone give me some hints how I can solve this? Is there anything I'm missing?
Sorry for my bad english and for my lack of LaTex skill.
Thanks for your answers in advance.
