Question

What is the current at point A in the circuit shown below?

The circuit schematic consists of four vertical branches connected together in parallel in a circuit. The first branch on the left consists of a battery labeled V1, 25 V with its positive polarity pointing upwards. The second branch consists of a resistor labeled R1, 7.5 kOhm. The third branch consists of a second resistor labeled R2, 4.3 kOhm. The fourth branch consists of a third resistor labeled R3, 3.3 kOhm. The negative lead of the battery is connected to ground.

Explanation / Answer

the current is split into three parts.. part1=25/75000=0.333mA part2=25/4300=5.813mA part3=7.57mA totla=7.57+0.333+5.813=13.72ma
