Explanation / Answer


R1 = 13.769 ohms , R2 = 1.23 ohms , V = 3.7 V, I = 0.26 A

R123 = V/I = 3.7/0.26 = 14.23 ohms

R23 =(1.23*R3)/(1.23+R3)

R123 = 13.769+ (1.23*R3)/(1.23+R3) = 14.23

R3 = 0.737 ohms

In series combination current is constant

I23 = 0.26 A,

R23 = (1.23*0.737)/(1.23+0.737) = 0.461 ohms

V23 = 0.26*0.461 = 0.12 V

In parallel combination potential is constant

V2 = V3 = 0.12 V

I3 = 0.12/0.737 = 0.163 A
