Hi, i understand that the ans for IR3 is equals to IR1 - IR6 = 7.5A - 5.5A = 2.0A. My question is, since current flowing through R5, IR5=0, is the current flowing through R4 = 0 as well? And for this circuit, is the current flowing through the short circuit = infinity

Question

Hi, i understand that the ans for IR3 is equals to IR1 - IR6 = 7.5A - 5.5A = 2.0A.

My question is, since current flowing through R5, IR5=0, is the current flowing through R4 = 0 as well? And for this circuit, is the current flowing through the short circuit = infinity?

What's the current in R3, i.e., iR3, in the following circuit? (Hint: use supernode)
İR1
R1
R2
:Rs iRS
R4
V,1
R3 3 irs
İR3
R6
Given iR1 = 7.SA, IR5 =2.5A, İR6 = 5.5A
Which among the following values most closely matches the correct answer?
O a. 1.5A
O b.3.0A
O C. 2.5A
O d. 2.0A
