thanks, need 2 know what is the formula for finding the power disapated by a certain resistor in a simple series parallel circuit. Giv me anything urv got.

P=(V^2)/R, with the voltage across the resitor
P=IV. with the current and voltage corresponding the resistor in question
P=(I^2)R, with the current through the resistor

Hope it helps
