Three resistors are connected as shown in the diagram,
Through the resistor 5 ohm , a current of 1 ampere is flowing .
a) what is the current flowing through the other two resistors ?
b) what is the potential difference across AB and across AC ?
c) What is the total resistance ?

See the diagram for the circuit.
Voltage across 5Ω = 5*1= 5V.
Net resistance across BC (parallel combination) = 10×15/25 = 6Ω
Voltage across BC (parallel combination) = 6×1 = 6V.
Current thru 10Ω = 6/10= 0.6 A
Current thru 15Ω = 6/15 or 1 -0.6,= 0.4A.
Total resistance across AC: 5+6= 11Ω.
Total potential across AC: 5+6= 11V.
