QUESTION 4

1) What is the reading on voltmeter V1?

  1. Identify the components in the top parallel branch.

    The top branch contains a 3 Ω3 \, \Omega resistor and a 6 Ω6 \, \Omega resistor connected in series.
    The total resistance of the top branch is Rtop=3 Ω+6 Ω=9 ΩR_{top} = 3 \, \Omega + 6 \, \Omega = 9 \, \Omega.

  2. Identify the current through the top branch.

    Ammeter A1 is in series with these resistors and reads 6 A6 \, \text{A}. So, the current through the top branch is Itop=6 AI_{top} = 6 \, \text{A}.

  3. Calculate the voltage across the top
