V3 is connect to R1. V4 is connected to R2.
To determine the power of the circuit, we need to calculate the power of each component separately and then sum them up.
First, let's calculate the power (P) of resistor R1 using the formula P = I^2 * R, where I is the current flowing through the resistor and R is the resistance of the resistor.
We know that V3 is connected to R1. Let's denote the current flowing through R1 as I1.
Using Ohm's Law, we can find the current I1 as I1 = V3 / R1.
Now, let's calculate the power P1 of R1. P1 = I1^2 * R1.
Next, let's calculate the power (P) of resistor R2. Similarly, using the same formula, we have P2 = I2^2 * R2.
We know that V4 is connected to R2. Let's denote the current flowing through R2 as I2.
Finally, the total power of the circuit will be the sum of P1 and P2.
Given that the values of V3, V4, R1, and R2 are not provided in the question, it is not possible to calculate the power of the circuit or complete the table accurately without this information.

Since we don't have the values for R1, R2, V3, or V4, we cannot calculate the current (I) or voltage (V) across the resistors. Therefore, we cannot complete the table accurately.
To determine the power of the circuit, we need to calculate the power dissipated in each resistor and then sum them up.
First, let's determine the voltage drop across each resistor. We can use Ohm's Law, which states that voltage (V) is equal to the current (I) multiplied by the resistance (R). In this case, the voltage is the difference in potential between each junction (A) and the corresponding point (V3 and V4).
Let's assume the voltage at junction A is Va and the voltages at V3 and V4 are V3 and V4, respectively. We can write the following equations:
V3 = Va - R1*I1 -- Equation 1
V4 = Va - R2*I2 -- Equation 2
Now, let's determine the current flowing through each resistor. Since the resistors R1 and R2 are connected in series, the total current flowing through them is the same. We can call this current I. The current flowing through R1 is the same as the current flowing into junction A3 (I1), and the current flowing through R2 is the same as the current flowing into junction A4 (I2).
Since the resistors R1 and R2 are connected in series, the total resistance (R) can be calculated as R = R1 + R2.
Next, we need to calculate the power dissipated in each resistor. Power (P) is equal to the product of voltage (V) and current (I). Therefore, the power dissipated in R1 and R2 can be calculated as follows:
P1 = (V3 * I1) = (Va - R1*I1) * I1 -- Equation 3
P2 = (V4 * I2) = (Va - R2*I2) * I2 -- Equation 4
To find the total power of the circuit, we need to calculate P1 + P2.
Now, you can substitute equations 1 and 2 into equations 3 and 4, respectively, and solve the equations to find the power dissipated in each resistor. Finally, sum up the powers to find the total power of the circuit.
Please provide the values of the resistances (R1 and R2), the voltage at junction A (Va), and the current flowing through the resistors (I1 and I2) for me to complete the calculations.
