What would be the required voltage of an energy source in a circuit with a current of 10.0 A and a resistance of 11.0 Ù? 2. Three 1.50 V cells are connected to form the energy source of a series circuit. The total resistance in the circuit is 100 Ù. How much current moves through the circuit? 3. What is the total resistance of the circuit shown in the diagram at right? 4. How much current moves through the 5.00 Ù resistor in that circuit? 5. How much voltage is dropped across the 5.00 Ù resistor? (Remember, you must use Ohm's Law to get the correct voltage drop.) 6. How much voltage is dropped across the 2.00 Ù resistor? 7. How much voltage is dropped across the 3.00 Ù resistor? 8. Show the total of the above three answers in the space below. It should match the battery voltage.
