Need some help with some homework...

Yes, what’s the problem?

I have a totally moronically worded question, and i have NO idea how to tackle parts 2 3 and 4 of it...
a) Use Nodal Analysis to nd the voltage across the 68-ohm resistor.
b) Find the same voltage if the 68-ohm resistor were replaced by a 2k resistor.
Note, there should be an assumption/approximation you can make so to not
do the exact same approach as in part a).
c) Find the voltage if the 68-ohm resistor were replaced by a 43-ohm resistor,
a 75-ohm resistor, a 100-ohm resistor and a 200 ohm resistor. Note: You
should not have to solve a system of equations for this part either.
d) Which value of resistor in part c) absorbed the most power? How does
this compare to the Thevenin resistance between points A and B?

also, want to hop on the chat? make it easy to chat about this

Those problems of “Solve this 47,000 times” are the worst.
For part B, I’d assume that with a 2k in there that it would act open (since it’s so much larger than the other values in the circuit), so on the left you just have a 75/200 voltage divider and on the right it’s just 100mA over 22 ohms, there’s Va and Vb.
I think for C and D they want you to find a thevenin or norton equivalent at A and B so you can just plug in whatever resistors you want in part C and solve it simply. As a function of this you’ll answer part D, since you’ll now know voltages and resistance for the values in C
Hopefully this helps some

Oh god. Finding the resistance of a single resistor in a series parallel circuit make me want to die. I want to help but can’t cause that shit is the devil.

we have all the resistances. he is asking for other, much more convoluted stuff

V=ir, that’s all I can remember. Good luck, I hate electricity, concrete and steel are my deal.
