In the discussion on calculating current and voltage in a divider circuit, participants focused on the correct application of voltage divider principles. The voltage across two 100-ohm resistors was confirmed to be 1.25V, while the voltage Vx was recalculated to be 1.125V using the voltage divider rule for the 90-ohm and 20-ohm resistors. There was an emphasis on ensuring that potential drops do not exceed the supply voltage. Additionally, a suggestion was made to simplify calculations by multiplying the current i3 by 90Ω for efficiency. Accurate calculations are crucial for understanding circuit behavior.
