Voltage across an unbalanced resistor bridge

In the above circuit R1 = R2 = R4 = 1 ohm and R3 = (11/10) ohm. I have to find the voltage V. Initially I tried using voltage division in (2 ohm/2.1 ohm) x 10 V = 9.52 V and (2.1 ohm/2 ohm) x 10 V = ...

Why is there a resistor inline with switch in blender motor?

Our hand-held blender stopped working and I took it apart to see if I could fix it (no, as it turned out). The circuit was simple; a switch and a 0.47 Ohm (R47) resistor in series with a full bridge ...
