Draw a circuit with a battery of 90 V is connected to four resistors, R1 =10 Ω, R2,= 20 Ω , R3 =30 Ω and R4= 40 Ω, as follows. Resistors R1 and R2 are connected in parallel with each other, resistors R3 and R4 are connected in parallel with each other, and both parallel sets of resistors are connected in series with each other across the battery.
