A hundred volt power supply is used to power a twenty ohm resistor, which is joined to a ten ohm resistor and a fifteen ohm resistor in parallel. A parallel combination of a ten ohm resistor and a five ohm resistor is linked(connected) to the fifteen ohm resistor as well. The five ohm resistor is joined/connected to a voltage source of eighty volts. Create a sketch of the thevenin circuit &  use the thevenin theorm approach to determine the currents, voltage drop, and power dissipated in the ten ohm resistor.

A hundred volt power supply is used to power a twenty ohm resistor, which is joined to a ten ohm resistor and a fifteen ohm resistor in parallel. A parallel combination of a ten ohm resistor and a five ohm resistor is linked(connected) to the fifteen ohm resistor as well. The five ohm resistor is joined/connected to a voltage source of eighty volts. Create a sketch of the thevenin circuit &  use the thevenin theorm approach to determine the currents, voltage drop, and power dissipated in the ten ohm resistor.
