Question

For the DC circuit shown in the accompanying figure, find the voltage across each resistor and the current through each resistor. 

This image depicts an electrical circuit diagram. Here's a detailed description of the components and layout: ### Circuit Components: 1. **Voltage Source:** - A 10-volt (10 V) voltage source is shown on the left side of the circuit. 2. **Resistors:** - There are three resistors in the circuit: - A resistor with a resistance of 30 ohms (30 Ω) is connected in series with the voltage source. - Two resistors with resistances of 25 ohms (25 Ω) and 10 ohms (10 Ω), respectively, are connected in parallel to each other and in series with the 30-ohm resistor. ### Circuit Layout: - The circuit forms a single loop with the voltage source and the 30-ohm resistor. - After the 30-ohm resistor, the circuit branches into two pathways, each containing one of the parallel resistors (25 Ω and 10 Ω). - The parallel branches then reconnect to complete the circuit back to the voltage source. This configuration can be used to explore series and parallel resistor combinations and analyze the total equivalent resistance, voltage drops, and current distribution throughout the circuit.
