Make sure to enter your answers in the specified units .
1
A resistor of 196 ohms is connected in series with a resistor of 255 ohms. What is the combined resistance of the circuit?

2
The circuit of problem 1 is connected to a 302 volt battery and the current flows for 7.5 minutes. How much power (in watts) is used?

3
Two resistors, R1=274 ohms and R2=208 ohms are connected in parallel. Calculate the combined resistance of the circuit.

4
The circuit of problem 3 is connected to a 318 volt power supply. How much current (in amps) will flow through the power supply?

5
If the circuit of problem 4 operates for 5 minutes, how much energy (in joules) will be used?
