    Answer:

    9.6 Amperes

    Explanation:

    1. since the resistors are connected in parallel connection the equivalent resistance is

    1/R = 1 /5 + 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5

    solving for R we get 5/4 ohms

    then from V=IR

    I = V/R

    I=12/(5/4)

    hence I= 9.6 Amperes

    Answer:

    R =4•Rₒ = 4•50 = 200 Ω

    Ohm’s law

    I =U/R = 12/200 =0.06 A
