Question

In the circuit shown below, find the voltage across resistance.

(a) 0.303

(b) 303

(c) 3.03

(d) 30.3

The question was asked by my school principal while I was bunking the class.

This intriguing question comes from Series Circuits topic in section Complex Impedence of Network Theory

Answer 1

The correct choice is (c) 3.03

Easy explanation: Voltage across resistance = IR. The values of I = 3.03 mA and R = 10000Ω. On substituting the values in the equation, the voltage across resistance = 3.03 x 10^-3×1000 = 3.03V.
