this is a circuits question - trying to find the resistance of R3 in the circuit......

|dw:1362249298314:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i figured out the currents for the 4 areas and i know what the current total is but i dont know how to find the resistor value with the info i have here...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know this should be fairly simple, but i must be missing something that i need to find to find the resistance

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This should be in physics Remember that the potential drop along the two parallel arms are equal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so in that case then the voltage should be the same, resulting in V3=5v?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry @xavier, I will put this in physics next time.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Awesome, thank you very much @xavier

Yes, thats right
