v = i*r.

So i = v/r.

Now here r1, r2, r3 are in series, so r = 7 oh.

i = 28/7.

So that vtg drop at a to b point is.

v = i*r.
= 4*2.2 = 8.8 v.

And vtg drop at point b to d is.

3.3 + 1.5 = 4.8 ohm.

v = i*r.
= 4*4.8.
= 19.2 v.

v = i * r = 28/7 * 4.8 = 19.2.

Hi guys,

There is another way to find the correct answer,
That is voltage divider rule V(find) = V(total) * (R2+R3)/(R1+R2+R3)
V(find) = 28 * (4.8k)/(7k) = 19.2v.

V = 28v.
R = R1+R2+R3 = 7k Ohm.
Va = Vin (R1/Req).
Va = 28 (2.2 K / 7 K),
Va = 8.8 V.

Voltage at points B to D.
Vtotal = Va + (Vb+Vc+Vd).
(Vb+Vc+Vd) = Vtotal - Va,
(Vb+Vc+Vd) = 28 - 8.8,
(Vb+Vc+Vd) = + 19.2 V.

V = 28v.
R = R1+R2+R3 = 7kohm.

I = V/R = 28/7 = 4 ma.
Vb = iR2 = 4*3.3 = 13.2.
Vd = iR3 = 4*1.5 = 6.
V = Vb+Vd = 13.2+6 = 19.2V.

Hi,

I think the calculation shall take as below.

Addition of all resister = 7 kohms.

Voltage source = 28 volt. So current flow = 4 ma.

==> voltage drop accross r1 = 4*2.2 = 8.8 volt.

Am I correct. ?

@Anil Kamani:

Sorry, you are wrong becouse current will flow from B-C-D path not from B-A-D. If u want to flow the the current from B to D through point A then substract the 8.8v from 28V due opposite direction of current.

So, u will get

V=-(8.8-28)v
V=+19.2 v

V=28v
R=R1+R2+R3=7kohm

I=V/R= 28/7= 4 ma.

Now, voltage between point B and D,

V=I(R2+R3) = 4(3.3+1.5) = 4*4.8 = 19.2v

So, V=19.2v

As per the voltage Divider rule:

V= (R1 + R2) (Total Voltage/(R1+R2+R3))

V= (3.3K + 1.5K) (28/(2.2K + 3.2K + 1.5K))

V=19.2 V

We should calculate first:

it(total current)=vt/rt
vt=28 v
rt=7000 ohm
it=28/7000=0.004

Resistance from b to d=4800 ohm
v(b to d)=i*r(b to d)
i in series = total current
v(b to d)=0.004*4800=19.2 volt
