can any1 clue me into how u calculate the current through a resistor and the power absorbed by a resistor please!?
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
Do I use Ohms Law V = i * R?
 
use I = V/R then for power, P = VI
 
ok thanks wayneo i have another question, how do i find the equivalent resistance seen by a source?
 
i don't rely understand the question soz
 
thats cool i think i got it thanks for ur help on the 1st partz
