Quelle est la puissance totale consommée par deux résistances de 10 ohms branchées en série aux bornes d'une pile de 10 volts?
- A2 watts
- B20 watts
- C0,5 watt
- D5 watts
Correct answer: D — 5 watts. Question tirée de la banque officielle d'ISDE.
Why
With two 10-ohm resistors in series, the total resistance becomes 20 ohms, which limits the current flowing from the 10-volt battery to 0.5 amperes. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
