Enhanced EOC: Problem 23.23- MC 3 of 8 Correct You may want to review (Pages 737-740). Part If the amount of current flowing through the single resistor Ris 1 -5 A while the current flowing through the other resistor R and the 1012 resistor is 12 -2.5 A. what is the resistance R in the figure? (Figure 1) Express your answer using three significant figures. View Available Hint(s) 0 Figure R 2.5 1of1 Submit X Incorrect; Try Again Part D This question will be shown after you complete previous question(s). 102 Part E This question will be shown after you complete previous questions)

Explanation / Answer

Part C)
As R and (R + 10ohms) are in parallel potential diffrence across them must be same.

I1*R = I2*(R + 10)

5*R = 2.5*(R + 10)

5*R = 2.5*R + 25

R*(5 - 2.5) = 25

R = 25/(5 - 2.5)

= 10 ohms <<<<<<<<<-------Answer
