Example 26 – 5
Current in one branch. What is the current flowing through
the 500- resister in the figure?
What do we need to find first? We need to find the total
current.
To do that we need to compute the equivalent resistance.

Req of the small parallel branch is:
RP 500 700 3500
Req of the circuit is: Req  400  3500  400  292  692
