Three resistors with resistance 200\Omega, 500\Omega and 1k\Omega are connected in series. A 6v battery is connected to either end of the combination. Calculate the potential difference between the ends of 200\Omega resistance.
A
0.71V
B
0.7V
C
0.82V
D
0.8V
Verified Correct Answer: A.
Physical Principles & Numerical Solution
Req = 200 + 500 + 1000 = 1700\Omega
P.d
(across
200\Omega)
=
200
1700
\times
6
=
0.71V
