Hi, to be honest this isnt actually homework for any course however since I am interested in learning I guess its personal homework. That being said I really want to try to understand what I am not seeing here and be able to solve it.
So in the enclosed simple circuit I have a DC voltage source powering resistors in series and in parallel.
My known values are as such:
R3 Has a voltage drop of 12v and is using 0.25A
V1 is a 30v regulated source
My question is can I solve for R1 and R2 or do I not have enough information?
I have read through once (so far) the Volume I - Direct Current on this site and am trying to apply the concepts but I seem to be stuck.
I think R1 has a voltage drop of 18v and I also think R3 is 48 ohms however thats about as far as I have gotten.
