what are all the voltages

Transcribed Image Text:This diagram represents an electrical circuit containing a combination of series and parallel resistors connected to a 5V battery.
**Circuit Elements:**
- **Voltage Source:**
- A 5V battery provides the voltage for the circuit.
- **Resistors:**
- \( R_1 = 1.0 \, \text{k}\Omega \)
- \( R_2 = 6.8 \, \text{k}\Omega \)
- \( R_3 = 3.3 \, \text{k}\Omega \)
- \( R_4 = 10 \, \text{k}\Omega \)
- \( R_5 = 5.6 \, \text{k}\Omega \)
**Circuit Configuration:**
1. **Series and Parallel Configuration:**
- \( R_1 \) is connected in series directly with the 5V battery.
- \( R_2 \) and \( R_3 \) are connected in parallel with each other.
- This parallel combination is then in series with the parallel combination of \( R_4 \) and \( R_5 \).
- The total parallel combination of \( R_2, R_3, R_4, \) and \( R_5 \) is in series with \( R_1 \).
**Analysis Explanation:**
- The total resistance in the circuit can be determined by calculating the equivalent resistance of the parallel combinations and then adding the resistances in series.
- First, determine the equivalent resistance of \( R_2 \) and \( R_3 \) using the formula for parallel resistors: \( \frac{1}{R_{eq1}} = \frac{1}{R_2} + \frac{1}{R_3} \).
- Similarly, calculate the equivalent resistance of \( R_4 \) and \( R_5 \): \( \frac{1}{R_{eq2}} = \frac{1}{R_4} + \frac{1}{R_5} \).
- The combined equivalent resistances \( R_{eq1} \) and \( R_{eq2} \) are then added to find their total contribution in series with \( R_1 \): \( R_{total} = R_1 + R_{eq1} + R_{eq2} \).
