Problem

A 10 Ω10\,\Omega resistor, a 20 Ω20\,\Omega resistor and an unknown resistor RxR_x are connected in series to a 24 V24\,\text{V} source. The current measured in the circuit is 0.40 A0.40\,\text{A}. (i) Determine the value of RxR_x. (ii) Calculate the power dissipated in the 20 Ω20\,\Omega resistor.
