Problem

Three resistors of 10 Ω10\,\Omega, 20 Ω20\,\Omega and 30 Ω30\,\Omega are connected in series across a 240 V240\,\text{V} battery of negligible internal resistance. (a) Find the current in the circuit. (b) Determine the electrical energy converted into heat in the entire circuit during a period of 10 min10\,\text{min}. (c) How much charge passes through any one resistor in this time?
