2. For the following circuit, you ultimately want to measure the power dissipation of the 6.0 S2 resistor: a) First, redraw the diagram on the page you are turning in. 4V 42 b) Define the directions of the currents arriving at the top junction by stating the direction of the current 62 is at points a, b, and c (i.e. up, down, left, or right). Physically draw the directions of these currents on 22 8V the diagram. c) write an equation in the space below for the Kirchhoff Junction Rule for the current directions arriving at the top junction as chosen in part a). d) Choose two Kirchhoff loops that include the 6.0 2 resistor. Physically draw these two loops on the diagram. e) write out a simple equation for each circuit element in your two Kirchhoffloops (note: you should have two equations). Clearly denote for each term whether it is a rise in voltage or a drop in voltage for your Kirchhoff loops. Combine your equations from part c) and part e) to solve for the current through the 6.0 Q resistor. g) Use your result from part to solve for the power dissipation of the 6.0 Q resistor.
