Turn on the multimeter and shift it to the voltage -measuring mode, 20 Volts
range. Connect its probes to the sockets of R 5. Write down the voltage you have measured:

Disconnect R 5 from power supply. T urn the multimeter to current measurement mode. Connect its positive probe (the red one) to the plus of the power supply , and its negative probe to the R 5. What current do you read? Is it consistent with step 11?
Step 13:
Disconnect the multimeter from the circuit and connect resistor R 5 back to the power supply. Turn the multimeter into voltage measuring mode.
Step 14:
Kirchoff's Law states that sum of all voltages in closed circuit equals to zero. Let's check this. Measure the voltage on the power supply and two resistors in the way that voltmeter's polarity will stay constant. Write down voltages with the sign:

The Second Kirchoff's Law states that sum of all currents that enter a point in electrical circuit equals to zero. If a current comes out of a point , it is taken into
the sum with the negative sign. In our case lets take the point where R 4 and R 5 are being connected to the plus of the power supply. The current from the power supply enters this point; therefore , IT should be taken with positive sign. The resistor's currents are leaving the point therefore; they should be taken with the negative signs. Check if:
IT ± IR4 ± IR5 = 0
Step 11:

What would be the total resistance of all the resistors in TPS-3321 connected in parallel? Step 12:
Connect the resisters as follows and measure their resistance:
R 3 10K R 4 5.1K R 5 1K
R T = ____ ; Does the measurement comply with theoretical prediction? Step 13:
Now we have all mathematical apparatus needed to calculate any resister network with mixed connection: both parallel and serial. Assemble
the following network and calculate its r esistance. R 5 1K 100;
R 6
5.1K R 4
When meeting complicated mixed resistor networks it is easy to calculate the total resistance in steps: first find part of the network that you can recognize as a simple connection ± either serial or parallel. Substitute that part as one resistor with value equal to total resistance of that part. You will get a new circuit , which is exactly equal to the former one , but has fewer components and therefore is simpler. Find another part that's connection is familiar to you and proceed in this manner.
In our case, it is obvious that resistors R 2, R 4 and R 5 are connected in serial. The resulting resistor is connected in parallel with R 3. When we substitute their connection with one resistor , it would be connected in serial with R 1. The total resistance of the network is:
R T = ____ ; Step 14:
Check yourself by measuring the resistance of the assembled circuit.
