Transcribed Image Text:### Use the Circuit on the Right
#### Circuit Description:
The circuit shown consists of a 24 V battery and four resistors arranged as follows:
- A 20 Ω resistor between points A and B.
- A 15 Ω resistor following the 20 Ω resistor connected to point C.
- A parallel branch containing a 12 Ω resistor and a 40 Ω resistor, both connecting points C and D.
#### Questions:
1. **Calculate the Net Resistance (Ω).**
2. **Calculate the Net Current (mA) through the battery.**
3. **Calculate the Voltage Drop (V) across the 20-Ω resistor.**
4. **Calculate the Voltage Drop (V) across the 12-Ω resistor.**
5. **Calculate the Current (mA) through the 12-Ω resistor.**
#### Explanation of the Diagram:
The diagram represents a circuit with a series connection from points A to C consisting of a 20 Ω and a 15 Ω resistor. Between points C and D, there is a parallel connection of a 12 Ω and a 40 Ω resistor. The entire setup is powered by a 24 V battery, providing voltage across the circuit.
