Question

Consider the following electric circuit : Calculate the values of the following :

In our homes, we receive the supply of electric power through a main supply also called mains, either supported through overhead electric poles or by underground cables. In our country the potential difference between the two wires (live wire and neutral wire) of this supply is 220 V.

Show how you would connect three resistors each of resistance 6 Ω, so that the combination has a resistance of 9 Ω. Also justify your answer.

In the given circuit calculate the power consumed in watts in the resistor of 2 Ω :
