Learning Goal: I’m working on a electrical engineering question and need the explanation and answer to help me learn.

1.What is the relationship between the voltage drops across each resistor in the current?

2.What is the relationship between the currents through each resistor in the circuit?

Analysis; To begin, we found three resistors (R1, R2, and R3) with a total resistance of Rtot=6.5k to build a circuit. Next, we computed the values and filled in the second column titled Theoretical values in Table 1 based on the resistances chosen. Once the entire column is filled, build the circuit and measure each value in the table to fill out the third column, Actual values, as well as the fourth column for percent error.
