Chapter 26: Problem 3
A resistor with \(R_1 =\) 25.0 \(\Omega\) is connected to a battery that has negligible internal resistance and electrical energy is dissipated by \(R_1\) at a rate of 36.0 W. If a second resistor with \(R_2 =\) 15.0 \(\Omega\) is connected in series with \(R_1\), what is the total rate at which electrical energy is dissipated by the two resistors?
