+//Problem 13.11: A Wheatstone Bridge network is shown in Figure 13.32(a). Calculate the current flowing in the 32 ohm resistor, and its direction, using Th´evenin’s theorem. Assume the source of e.m.f. to have negligible resistance.
+
+//initializing the variables:
+E = 54; // in volts
+R1 = 2; // in ohms
+R2 = 14; // in ohms
+R3 = 3; // in ohms
+R4 = 11; // in ohms
+R5 = 32; // in ohms
+
+//calculation:
+//The 32ohm resistance branch is short-circuited as shown in Figure 13.32(b).
+//The p.d. between A and C,
+Vac = (R1/(R1 + R4))*E
+//The p.d. between B and C,
+Vbc = (R2/(R2 + R3))*E
+//Hence the p.d. between A and B
+Vab = Vbc - Vac
+//the resistance ‘looking-in’ at a break made between A and B is given by
+r = R1*R4/(R1 + R4) + R2*R3/(R2 + R3)
+//The equivalent Th´evenin’s circuit is shown in Figure 13.32(f), the current in the 32 ohm resistance is given by:
+I = E/(r + R5)
