I have a circuit with a 10V source that
goes into a three way junction that makes
shape of a diamond with a branch going
through the diamond



I'm supposed to find the voltage at each resistance
and the each current there are five of them

I've been on this problem for two hours.

I've attached a picture made in paint.

Please help.

how do you access the attachment?
 
just trying to attach a file, I'm new to this
 
If you're still struggling, I think you can put in an ordinary img tag and place the graphic in your post. Make it a small graphic. May want to check with the Big Boss of this forum first.

Your screen name, while admirable, is probably not the wisest choice for a forum peopled with MANY LARGE-BRAINED PHYSICISTS who just LOVE the evil subject. ha, ha!

Good luck. They have helped me, just keep at it.
