Mission EC11: Combination Circuits Calculations

Mission EC11 pertains to the mathematical analysis of combination circuits. The mission consists of 20 questions organized into 5 Question Groups. You must answer one question from each Question Group to complete the mission. The learning outcomes for this mission are ...
 

Learning Outcomes

• The student should be able to mathematically analyze a combination circuit to determine the equivalent resistance, the total circuit current and the current through each resistor (if given the battery voltage and the resistance of each resistor).
