What is the potential difference across the R 1 = 13 ? resistor in the figure (

Question

What is the potential difference across the R1= 13? resistor in the figure (Figure 1) if R2=24?? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Part B What is the potential difference across the R2= 24? resistor in the figure if R1=13?? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
Part B What is the potential difference across the R2= 24? resistor in the figure if R1=13?? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Explanation / Answer

current i = 15/(13+24) = 0.4054 A

A)

V1 = i*R1 = 0.4054*13 = 5.2702 V

B)

V2 = i*R2 = 0.4054*24 = 9.7296 V
