    This is impossible to answer without knowing the resistance of the wire marked A. Using potential divider theory to find the voltage at the junctions at each end of wire A will give you 2 different voltages, let's call the difference Vd.

    According to Ohms law, V=IR, so to find current I, you must have both V AND R.

    Also, right click your open itunes icon, select 'pin to taskbar' and unpin the unopen one.

    electric contemporary interior the circuit after the swap is closed: i = (V/r)*[ e^-(t/tau)] If time t = tau ===> i = (one thousand/3000)*(e^-a million) = 0.12 A word: The capacitance is used to calculate the time consistent ( tau = RC = a million.5 ms)
