3. What is the current if a circuit has a 12-volt battery and a 2 Ohm resistor? V = IR.
4. The following two questions are based on series and parallel circuits.
a) A 750-Ω and an 1600-Ω resistor are connected in series with a 12-V battery. What is the voltage across the 1600-Ω resistor?
b) A 750-Ω and an 1600-Ω resistor are connected in parallel with a 12-V battery. What is the voltage across the 1600-Ω resistor?
5. A wire carrying a steady (dc) 40-A current has a length l = 26 cm between the pole faces of a magnet. The wire is at an angle θ = 450 to the field. The magnetic field is approximately uniform at 1.20 T. We ignore the field beyond the pole pieces, Determine the magnitude and direction of the force on the wire.

8. Calculate the position and the size of the image of a 8.4-cm-high leaf placed 1.20 m from a +70.0-mm-focal point camera lens.
9. Wavelengths from double-slit interference. White light passes through two slits 0.50 mm apart, and an interference pattern is observed in a screen 2.5 mm away. The first-order fringe resembles a rainbow with violet and red light at opposite ends. The violet light is abut 2.0 mm and the red 3.5 mm from the center of the central white fringe. Estimate the wavelengths from the violet and red light.
