Question

Two bulbs each of resistance 2.0 ohms are connected in parallel with a battery. Calculate the current flowing through any of the bulbs if the voltage of the battery is 0.2V

Answer 1

since E = IR, the current through the circuit is

0.2 = I * 1/(1/2 + 1/2)
I = 0.2
so 0.1A through each bulb
