What is the value of resistor R in the figure(Figure 1) if ?V=6.5V?
given
V = 6.5 ohm
i = 100 m A
i = 0.1 A
R1 = 10 ohm , R2 = 15 ohm , and other remained resistor is R
according to Ohm's law
V = i Req
Req = V / i
Req = 6.5 / 0.1
Req = 65 ohm
here R1 , R2 , R are in series
so Req = R1 + R2 + R
65 = 10 + 15 + R
R = 65 - 25
R = 40 ohm
