42. By applying Kirchhoff’s laws or otherwise calculate the current flowing through the 6 Ω resistor in
                  the network shown.

                                                                                               [Ans 2.95 A]



               43. Three resistances of 25 Ω, 50 Ω, and 100 Ω are connected in parallel. If the total current drawn in
                  32 A, calculate the current drawn by each resistor.


                                                                            [Ans 18.284 A, 9.144 A, 4.572 A]


               44. Determine the current drawn from the battery in the circuit shown using Kirchhoff’s laws.

               45. Use star–delta conversion of resistors to determine the current delivered by the battery in the
                  network shown in Fig. 2.174.
