Question

The current in one part of a series circuit is 3 - 2j amps. The current in another part of the circuit is 2 + 4j amps. Find the total amps in the circuit CH 1 + 2j

Answer 1

The total amps in the circuit is 5 + 2j amps.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the total amps in the circuit, we need to add the currents in the two parts of the circuit. Given that the current in one part is 3 - 2j amps and the current in another part is 2 + 4j amps, we can simply add these complex numbers to get the total current.

Adding 3 - 2j and 2 + 4j gives us (3 + 2) + (-2 + 4)j = 5 + 2j amps.

Therefore, the total amps in the circuit is 5 + 2j amps.
