Question
A circuit is comprised of two adjacent square loops that share a side such that the right side of the left loop is also the left side of the right loop. The two loops meet at point a at the top of the shared side and point b at the bottom of the shared side.
  • The left side of the left loop contains a resistor R and a current I3 that points upwards.
  • The top side of the left loop contains a battery with voltage emf ℰ oriented such that the positive terminal is on the right and the negative is on the left.
  • The right side of the right loop contains a 6.0 Ω resistor and a current I1 that points downwards.
  • The top side of the right loop contains a 24 V battery oriented such that the positive terminal is on the right and the negative is on the left.
  • The shared side contains a 3.0 Ω resistor and a current I2 that points downwards.

In the circuit of the figure below, the current I1 is 3.5 A and the values of  and R are unknown. What are the currents I2 and I3? (Enter the magnitude only.)

I2=?A

I3=?A
