Question

QUESTION 2 Given the current source $I_s = 5$ A and the resistors $R_1 = 6$ Ohms, $R_2 = 8$ Ohms, and $R_3 = 3$ Ohms, use current division to determine $I_{R3}$, the current in the $R_3$ resistor. (Note: Round your answer to the nearest single digit decimal place and make sure you have the right sign!).

Step 1

We can do this by adding the resistances of R1, R2, and R3. RT = R1 + R2 + R3 = 6 Ohms + 8 Ohms + 3 Ohms = 17 Ohms Show more…
