In Fig. 27-19, a circuit consists of a battery and two uniform resistors, and the section lying along an xaxis is divided into five segments of equal lengths.
(a) Assume thatand rank the segments according to the magnitude of the average electric field in them, greatest first.
(b) Now assume thatand then again rank the segments.
(c) What is the direction of the electric field along the xaxis?

In Fig. 27-53, , , , and the ideal battery has emf. (a) What is the equivalent resistance? What is in (b) resistance 1, (c) resistance 2, (d) resistance 3, and (e) resistance4?
A group of Nidentical batteries of emfand internal resistance rmay be connected all in series (Fig. 27-80a) or all in parallel (Fig. 27-80b) and then across a resistor R. Show that both arrangements give the same current in Rif R=r.

For each circuit in Fig. 27-20, are the resistors connected in series, in parallel, or neither?

Question: In Fig. 27-77, the ideal batteries have emfs , and the resistances are each. What are the (a) size and (b) direction (up or down) ofand the (c) size and (d) direction of? (e) Does battery 1 supply or absorb energy, and (f) what is its energy transfer rate? (g) Does battery 2 supply or absorb energy, and (h) what is its energy transfer rate?
