    1. For the circuit of Figure 5.3.1, what is the expected current measurement at point D?

    2. For the circuit of Figure 5.3.2, what are the expected current and voltage measurements at point D?

    3. In Figure 5.3.2, R4 is approximately twice the size of R3 and about three times the size of R2. Would the voltages exhibit the same ratios? Why/why not? What about the currents through the resistors?

    4. If a fifth resistor of 10 k\(\Omega\) was added below R4 in Figure 5.3.2, how would this alter \(V_{AC}\) and \(V_B\)? Show work.

    5. Is KVL satisfied in Tables 5.5.2 and 5.5.3?
