Homework Statement
Five resistors with resistance R1 = 4.00 Ω, R2 = 6.00 Ω, R3 = 2.00 Ω, R4 = 7.00 Ω, R5 = 4.00 Ω, are connected to a battery with emf = 8.00 Volts as shown in the figure. Find the equivalent resistance of the circuit. Give you answer with a unit of "Ohm".
Homework Equations
parallel: Req = 1/((1/R1)+(1/R2)+...)
series: Req = R1 + R2 + R3 +...
The Attempt at a Solution
well I am thinking that R1 and R3 is in series and R2 and R4 is in series but from there I am not sure what to do. the R5 gets me confused
