Electrical Engineering - Series-Parallel Circuits - Discussion

How can solve answers is 12 V brief explain.

In voltage divider circuit if the resistance are same then output will be half of input voltage.

Thanks @Sushma.

Thanks for your clear explanation @Sushma.

The output voltage changes with load resistance and it has not been given that the circuit is a closed circuit, so the output voltage will be 24 volts until and unless load is connected at output, Also voltage will not vary until and unless there is a flow current in the circuit. The calculations done in above explanation have been considered in parallel which is not correct. Even if voltmeter is connected across output the internal resistance of the volt meter will be in parallel with the two resistances of voltage divider.

Clear explanation, Thanks @Sushma.

Resistance in kilo ohm and answer in volt.

Great answer @Sushma.

Unkown output voltage means voltage drop across the last element. Here bothresistance value is same so 12v is coming.

@All.

Hi, Here it is mentioned as a voltage divider. That means, its a simple series circuit across one voltage source.

Unless otherwise mentioning the output terminals, we cannot assume that the unknown voltage is across one of the resistance or so.

I think input data in the question has to be elaborated. Correct me, if I am wrong.
