- For the Electrical Circuit shown, calculate the current running through each resistor . You will need to sketch and/or label the resistors so I can interpret your results. Show the voltage drop across each resistor, also. This requires consideration of a parallel and series resistors together. Solve for the overall resistance of the parallel resistors, then put it in series with the other. Eventually solve for the current in each of the parallel resistors.

Based on what you learned about parallel and series connections in lab, which of these two configurations would result in the light bulbs being the brightest? Fully explain your reasoning. Imagine that you are given four 100Ω resistors to build a circuit. Your challenge is to use all four of the resistors in the circuit, but the circuit must have an overall equivalent resistance of 100Ω. Is this possible?
