Question
The question depicted in the image is: 

"9) What is the Voltage at node A?"

The diagram accompanying the question represents a vertical series circuit. It includes three voltage sources aligned in series, connected from node A at the top to 0V at the bottom. 

- The first voltage source at the top has a voltage of 4V, with the positive terminal facing upwards towards node A.
- The second voltage source in the middle has a voltage of 3V, with the positive terminal facing upwards.
- The third voltage source at the bottom also has a voltage of 3V, with the positive terminal facing upwards.

The bottom of the circuit is connected to a reference point of 0V, typically considered ground.

To find the voltage at node A, sum the voltages from the bottom up: 
3V + 3V + 4V = 10V.

Thus, the voltage at node A is 10V.
