Check the solution to Problem 1 by showing that the total power dissipated equals the power developed by the 12 V source.

Problem 1

Suppose the grid structure in Fig. 1 is 1 m wide and the vertical displacement of the five horizontal grid lines is 0.025 m. Specify the numerical values of R1 - R5 and Ra - Rd to achieve a uniform power dissipation of 120 W/m, using a 12 V power supply.
