5. For the circuit shown below, calculate:
a. \( V_A \)  
b. \( V_B \)  
c. \( V_C \)  
d. \( V_D \)  

**Circuit Diagram Description:**

- The circuit is powered by a voltage source \( V_1 = 12 \text{V} \).
- There are three resistors connected in series:
  - \( R_1 = 3300 \, \Omega \)
  - \( R_2 = 4700 \, \Omega \)
  - \( R_3 = 2000 \, \Omega \)
- Points \( A \), \( B \), \( C \), and \( D \) are voltage measurement points in the circuit.
- The circuit forms a closed loop with resistors connected in sequence from the positive terminal of the voltage source back to the negative terminal.

**Instructions:**

Calculate the voltage at each point \( A \), \( B \), \( C \), and \( D \) by considering the voltage drops across each resistor using Ohm's Law and the series circuit properties.
