PLEASE ANSWER CORRECTLY. WILL RATE YOU VERY HIGH

Explanation / Answer

820 ohm and 680 ohm are in parallel.So, resultant resistance R = (820 x680)/(820 + 680)

                                     R = 371.733 ohm

R and 960 ohm are in series.

So equivalent resisstance of the circuit R ' = R + 960

                                                              = 1331.73 ohm

Potential difference V = 12 V

Current through the circuit i = V/R '

                                        = 12 /1331.73

                                        = 9.01 x10 -3 A

Voltage across 960 ohm is V ' = i (960)

                                             = 8.65 volt

Voltage across R is V " = i R

                                   = (9.01 x10 -3 ) (371.73)

                                  = 3.35 volt

(B). the voltage across 820 resistor = 3.35 volt

(C).the voltage across 960 resistor = 8.65 volt

(D).the voltage across 680 resistor = 3.35 volt
