(a) Find the current through right 24 ohm resistor .(b) Find the potential difference across 24 ohm resistor

(a) The current through the right 24 ? resistor can be found using Ohm's Law, which states that the current through a resistor is equal to the voltage across the resistor divided by the resistance of the resistor. In this circuit, the total voltage is 36 V (from the battery), and the total resistance is 48 ? (the sum of the three resistors). Therefore, the current through the circuit is I = V/R = 36/48 = 0.75 A. To find the current through the right 24 ? resistor, we can use the fact that the current splits evenly at the node between the two 24 ? resistors. This means that half the total current flows through each 24 ? resistor. Therefore, the current through the right 24 ? resistor is 0.75/2 = 0.375 A. (b) The potential difference across the 24 ? resistor can be found using Ohm's Law again. The potential difference is equal to the current through the resistor multiplied by the resistance of the resistor. From part (a), we know that the current through the right 24 ? resistor is 0.375 A. Therefore, the potential difference across the resistor is V = IR = 0.375 x 24 = 9 V.
