a 3.3ohm resistor and another resistor are connected in parallel across a 3v battery. the current in the circuit is 1.41 A. Find the uknown resistance
R=(1/3.3 + 1/x)^-1
V=IR
3v= 1.41A(R)
R= 2.13 ohm
this is where i got stuck...
2.13 ohm= (1/3.3 ohm + 1/x ohm)^-1
how do i go about finding x...
the answer is 6 ohm but I am curious how. :D ty
