Find Ra

### Resistor Network Diagram This diagram demonstrates a complex resistor network between two points, \( A \) and \( B \). The network consists of eight resistors connected in a combination of series and parallel configurations. The goal is often to determine the equivalent resistance, \( R_{AB} \), between points \( A \) and \( B \). - **Between Points A and the Junction:** - There is a \( 12 \, \Omega \) resistor. - **Parallel Connection:** - From the junction after the \( 12 \, \Omega \) resistor, one branch connects through a \( 6 \, \Omega \) resistor. - The other branch goes through a \( 3 \, \Omega \) resistor. - **Intermediate Connection:** - The branches from the \( 6 \, \Omega \) and \( 3 \, \Omega \) resistors combine and connect through a \( 2 \, \Omega \) resistor, forming the next junction. - **Another Parallel Connection:** - From this next junction, one branch connects through a \( 3 \, \Omega \) resistor. - The other branch goes through a \( 4 \, \Omega \) resistor. - **Final Series Connection:** - After the \( 3 \, \Omega \) and \( 4 \, \Omega \) resistors, these branches combine and connect via a \( 2 \, \Omega \) resistor. - This combined path then connects to point \( B \). ### Description of Connections 1. The \( 12 \, \Omega \) resistor connects directly to the initial junction from point \( A \). 2. From this junction: - One parallel path connects through the \( 6 \, \Omega \) resistor to a second junction. - The other parallel path connects through the \( 3 \, \Omega \) resistor to the same second junction. 3. From the second junction: - A series connection through a \( 2 \, \Omega \) resistor leads to a third junction. 4. From the third junction: - One parallel path connects via a \( 3 \, \Omega \) resistor to the next junction. - The other parallel path connects via a \( 4 \, \Omega \) resistor to the same next junction. 5. From this junction: -
