A cell of emf 3.0 volts and internal resistance of 0.01 ohm is connected through an ammeter of 0.05-ohm internal resistance to a 5.0 rheostat by wire having a total resistance of 0.85-ohm?
total voltage = 4.5V, total resistance = 3.5 ohms, loop current = 4.5V / 3.5 ohms = 1.286Atotal voltage = 9V, total resistance = 4 ohms, loop current = 9V / 4 ohms = 2.25Atotal voltage = 13.5V, total resistance = 4.5 ohms, loop current = 13.5V / 4.5 ohms = 3Aetc.There is no solution to your problem conditions.
What is the total resistance of three resistors in parallel with values of 2 ohms 8 ohms and 14 ohms?
Current, by Ohm's Law, is voltage divided by resistance, so, 18 volts divided by 2 ohms is 9 amperes.
What is the total current in a circuit that has two heating elements that have a resistance of 5 ohms and 20 ohms the elements are connected in parallel with each other and connected to a 200 volt pow?
5 ohms in parallel with 20 ohms is 4 ohms. 4 ohms across 200 volts is 50 amperes. However, resistance is a function of temperature, so the 4 ohms will probably be higher, reducing the current. How much depends on the temperature coefficient of the loads.
If three cells that each have an emf 1.5 volts and an internal resistance of 2 ohms are connected in series to a resistor of 44 ohms what is the current through the resistor?
Taking the question at face value, the internal resistances will be treated like "real" resistors in the circuit. That means we have 3 batteries of 1.5 volts each connected in series with their 2 ohms + 2 ohms + 2 ohms of internal risistance, or 6 ohms of internal resistance. The 6 ohms of internal resistance acts in series with the 44 ohms of resistance stated as the value of the resistor. The total resistance is simply the sum of the two, or 6 ohms + 44 ohms or 50 ohms of total resistance. The batteries are connected in series, and their individual voltages are added to find total applied voltage. That means 1.5 volts + 1.5 volts + 1.5 volts or 4.5 volts will be the total applied voltage. Total current in the circuit (and through our 44 ohm resistor) will be the voltage applied divided by the resistance ( I = E / R), which, in this case, is 4.5 volts / 50 ohms which equals 0.07 amps. That's 7/100ths of an amp, or, in electronics speak, 70/1000ths of an amp, or 70 milliamps, or 70mA of current. The circuit is a series circuit, and that current, the total circuit current, will be flowing through each and every component of the circuit. That's what a series circuit means.
The total opposition to current in a series RC circuit is called?
Assuming you are talking about an AC circuit, then the total opposition to the flow of current in an R-C circuit is called its impedance (symbol: Z), measured in ohms. This is the vector sum of the circuit's resistance (R) and its capacitive reactance (XC) -each also measured in ohms.

What is the current in a circuit with 9 volts 3 ohms 2 ohms and 4 ohms?
The current in the circuit will depend on how the three resistors are wired. Series? Parallel? Series parallel? With the resistors in series, 3, 2 and 4 ohms will add to 9 ohms. As I = E/R, I = 9 V / 9 ohms = 1 A. With the resistors in parallel, the 3, 2 and 4 ohm resistors will draw 3 A, 4.5 A and 2.25 A respectively, and the total current will be the sum of the branch currents, or 3 A + 4.5 A + 2.25 A = 9.75 A. There are 3 different series parallel circuits possible, and more investigation will be necessary to solve for them.
