• The value of each voltage is given by:
V_{n} = \frac{(R_{n})(V)}{R_{eq}}
Where:
n = 1, \; 2, \;3, \; ..., \;N
V is the voltage of the source
R_{eq}is the equivant resistance
In case you do not recall how to compute the equivalent resistance, use the simulator Association of Linear Electrical Elements.
• The power dissipated in each resistor:
P_{n} = \frac{(R_{n})(V_{n})^2}{(R_{eq})^2}
• The total power in the circuit:
P = (V)(i)
• The current in the circuit:
i = \frac{V}{R_{eq}}
