Question

find the applied voltage

### Circuit Diagram Analysis **Components and Configuration:** - The circuit features a series of resistors and a voltmeter. - Resistors: - A 2 kΩ resistor is connected on the left side of the circuit. - An 18 kΩ resistor is connected on the right side. - A 20 kΩ resistor is connected at the bottom. - Another 20 kΩ resistor is connected parallel to the voltmeter in the middle section. - **Voltmeter (V):** Positioned centrally, labeled with a measurement of 20 V. **Connections:** - The circuit is powered by an applied voltage source denoted as \(V_{\text{applied}}\). - The resistors and voltmeter create a network around the circuit, forming a loop. **Operational Details:** - The voltmeter measures the voltage across the middle branch of the circuit. - Current flows through the circuit, distributing voltage according to the resistance values. This circuit diagram is a representation of a fundamental electrical network useful for understanding series and parallel resistor configurations and the function of a voltmeter in measuring potential differences across a section of the circuit.

Electrical Engineering homework question answer, step 1, image 1

As the Voltage across 20 KΩ resistor is given 20 V, and the voltage across another 20 KΩ resistor will be also 20 V as both resistor are connected in parallel. In case of Parallel Connection the voltage remains same.
