2. In a circuit that contains only resistors in parallel, some of the current in the circuit will go through each branch of the parallel resistors, as dictated by Kirchoff's Junction Rule. Furthermore, the potential difference provided by the battery is the potential difference across each branch of the parallel resistors (notice there is no potential drop between the branches). Assume the batteries supply a potential difference of AV = 3.0 V, and use Ohm's Law along with the currents measured through resistor R1 in circuits 4a, 4b, and 4c to determine the effective resistance in this branch (the branch that includes R1) of each circuit. Please show the calculation of each.   R1 = 150 ohm, R2 = 230 ohm R3 = 270 ohms (don't believe question should need these but providing anyways)
