6.3 Exercise 3
Given the following circuit, students rearrange the circuit to clarify its serial and/or parallel topology. Next, apply the knowledge you've learned to find the equivalent resistance value between two circuit terminals A and F, the voltage values at A, B, C, D, and E. Finally, perform the simulation to check your calculation.

and E
6.3.1 Rearrange the circuit
Insert the rearranged circuit here. Don't forget the resistance values and the nodes' names.
6.2.2 Calculation
Convention:
The equivalent resistance between the two terminals A and B of a circuit segment containing only R1, R2, R3, and R4 may be named RAB_1234-
