Ohm's law
Ohm’s law is a prominent concept in physics and electronics. It gives the relation between the current and the voltage. It is used to analyze and construct electrical circuits. Ohm's law states that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it.
Path of Least Resistance
In a series of alternate pathways, the direction of least resistance is the actual or metaphorical route that offers the least resistance to forwarding motion by a given individual or body.

![**Current Attempt in Progress**
Each resistor in the three circuits in the drawing has the same resistance \( R \), and the batteries have the same voltage \( V \). The values for \( R \) and \( V \) are 8 \(\Omega\) and 6.0 V, respectively. Determine the total power delivered by the battery in each of the three circuits.
### Diagram Descriptions:
#### Circuit A:
- Top part: Two resistors \( R \) are in series.
- Bottom part: Two resistors \( R \) are in series.
- The top and bottom series combinations are connected in parallel.
- A battery with voltage \( V \) is connected across the parallel network.
#### Circuit B:
- There are three branches.
- Each branch contains two resistors \( R \) in series.
- The three branches are connected in parallel.
- A battery with voltage \( V \) is connected across the parallel branches.
#### Circuit C:
- The top part has one single resistor \( R \).
- The middle part, below the top resistor, has two resistors \( R \) in parallel.
- The bottom part consists of the parallel combination in the middle, connected in series with one resistor \( R \).
- A battery with voltage \( V \) is connected across this complex network.
### Power Calculation:
The power delivered by the battery in each circuit can be calculated using the formula:
\[ P = \frac{V^2}{R_{eq}} \]
Where:
- \( P \) is the total power.
- \( V \) is the voltage of the battery.
- \( R_{eq} \) is the equivalent resistance of the circuit.
Enter your values for \( P_A \), \( P_B \), and \( P_C \) after calculating the equivalent resistance for each circuit.

\[
P_B = \quad \text{(Your Answer)}
