### Problem Statement

Given the following electrical circuits, you are tasked with:

a) Finding the equivalent resistance seen by the source.

b) Calculating the power developed by the source.

### Figure P3.4

**Diagram (a):**
- A circuit with a source voltage of 18 V.
- Three resistors are connected as follows:
  - A 24 Ω resistor is in series with a node connected to two parallel resistors.
  - The parallel resistors are 36 Ω and 18 Ω.

**Diagram (b):**
- A circuit with a source voltage of 60 V.
- Five resistors are connected as follows:
  - A 75 kΩ resistor is in series with a node connected to a 50 kΩ resistor.
  - The node is also connected to three parallel resistors: 100 kΩ, 150 kΩ, and 60 kΩ.
  - Additionally, a 90 kΩ resistor is in parallel with the entire arrangement of parallel resistors (100 kΩ, 150 kΩ, and 60 kΩ).

### Analysis

**Diagram (a) Analysis:**
1. **Equivalent Resistance Calculation:**
   - First, find the equivalent resistance of the parallel resistors (36 Ω and 18 Ω).
   - Add this equivalent resistance to the 24 Ω resistor to get the total equivalent resistance.

2. **Power Developed by the Source:**
   - Use the formula \( P = \frac{V^2}{R} \) where \( V \) is the source voltage and \( R \) is the equivalent resistance.

**Diagram (b) Analysis:**
1. **Equivalent Resistance Calculation:**
   - Start by finding the equivalent resistance of the parallel resistors (100 kΩ, 150 kΩ, and 60 kΩ).
   - Calculate the parallel equivalent resistance with 90 kΩ.
   - Add the results to the series configuration involving 75 kΩ and 50 kΩ.

2. **Power Developed by the Source:**
   - Use the formula \( P = \frac{V^2}{R} \) where \( V \) is the source voltage and \( R \) is the equivalent resistance.

These calculations will yield the necessary equivalencies and power outputs for analysis and further understanding of the circuit dynamics.
