$\mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{eq}_{1}}=2 \mathrm{R} / 3$

$\mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{eq}_{2}}=\mathrm{R} / 2+\mathrm{R}=\frac{3 \mathrm{R}}{2}$

$\mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{eq}_1}=\frac{\mathrm{E}^{2}}{2 \mathrm{R} / 3}=\frac{3 \mathrm{P}}{2}$

$\mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{eq}_1}=\frac{\mathrm{E}^{2}}{3 \mathrm{R} / 2}=\frac{2 \mathrm{P}}{3}$
