A resistor R1 dissipates power P when it
is connected to a certain generator. If a resistor
R2 is added in series with R1, the power
dissipated by R1 is
a. less than P.
b. greater than P.
c. P.
d. any of the above, depending on the values of
R1 and R2
If the second resistor from the previous exercise is
connected in parallel with R1; then the power dissipated
by R1 is
to. less than P.
b. greater than P.
c. P.
d. any of the above, depending on the values of
R1 and R2
