A quadraphonic car stereo operates on electric current provided by the car's 12V battery and is connected in series. Each channel of the stereo, which feeds the electrical signal to one of the stereo's four speakers, has a resistance of 4.1 oums. How much current is in the circuit of each stereo channel?

Ryan Harrison · Answer 1

2.93 A

Explanation:

From Ohm's law V = IR where V = voltage = 12 V, I = current = ? and R = resistance = 4.1 Ω.

So, the current in each quadraphonic stereo circuit is I = V/R = 12 V/4.1 Ω = 2.93 A
