**Problem-1**: Determine the current \( I_4 \) and the voltage \( V_2 \) for the network of the figure. ### Circuit Description: - A 12V voltage source is connected to a network of resistors. - Resistor \( R_1 = 4 \, \Omega \), \( R_2 = 3 \, \Omega \), \( R_3 = 6 \, \Omega \), and \( R_4 = 8 \, \Omega \). - \( R_2 \) and \( R_3 \) are in parallel with each other. - The combination of \( R_2 \) and \( R_3 \) in parallel is in series with \( R_1 \). - The series combination of \( R_1 \), \( R_2 \), and \( R_3 \) is in turn in series with \( R_4 \), through which the current \( I_4 \) flows downward. ### Objective: - Determine the current \( I_4 \) that flows through \( R_4 \). - Determine the voltage \( V_2 \) across the parallel combination of \( R_2 \) and \( R_3 \).
