Homework Statement
Assume the wire resistance is 1.0 Ohms, the power supply is an ideal 6V voltage source, and the light bulb resistance is 30 Ohms.
In the circuit below:
a). A lightbulb is connected to the power supply using two such wires. Calculate the current (in A) in the circuit.
b) Calculate the voltage drop (in V) across each wire.
Homework Equations
V=IR
R=dL/A
The Attempt at a Solution
a.) I = 6/1 = 6ohms
b.) V = 6 x 1 = 6V
I have no clue how to do this problem. Professor hasn't taught this material yet.
Thanks
