Questions:

1. How many nodes are there in the circuit?

2. Is/are there any resistor/s in parallel with R1? If yes, list the resisor/s.

3. Is/are there any resistor/s in parallel with R2? If yes, list the resisor/s.

4. How many nodes are there in the circuit?

5. Is/are there any resistor/s in series with R3? If yes, list the resisor/s.

6. Is/are there any resistor/s in series with R4? If yes, list the resisor/s.

7. Suppose you are to simplify the resistor network into one single resistor across nodes A and B. What will be the
value of this equivalent resistance (again, across nodes A and B) given the folowing resistance values: R1=5 ohms,
R2 = 10 ohms, R3=6 ohms, R4 = 20 ohms, R5 = 15 ohms, R6 = 5 ohms. Hint: a short or a wire has 0 ohm
resistance.

8. Determine the value of the current IX.

9. What is the value of the resistance RC.

10. What is the value of the resistance RB.
