**Graph/Diagram Explanation:**

The diagram shows a simple electrical circuit. Key components include:

- A power source labeled as \( E_T \).
- Two resistors in series, labeled \( R_1 \) and \( R_2 \).
- \( R_1 \) represents the 16 Ω resistor.
- \( R_2 \) represents the 55 Ω resistor.
- The circuit is depicted as a closed loop with the resistors connected in series with the power source.
