**Diagram:**
The image shows a circuit diagram with four resistors labeled \( R \), \( P \), \( Q \), and \( S \). Resistors \( P \), \( Q \), and \( S \) are connected in a specific arrangement between points \( A \) and \( B \), with resistor \( R \) branching out from \( A \).
- **Resistor Values:**
- \( P = 2.4 \, \Omega \)
- \( Q = 4.8 \, \Omega \)
- \( S = 1.2 \, \Omega \)
**Problem Statement:**
What is the equivalent resistance between points \( A \) and \( B \) if \( R = 1.2 \, \Omega \)?
**Answer Box:**
\[ \boxed{} \, \Omega \]](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F0ecda7b3-2bbc-4eab-87b0-2382a8be267a%2Fe5b15abd-3dd4-42dd-a915-93ce9bf4690f%2F10n428_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)

#### Circuit Diagram Description
The circuit features:
- A voltage source connected between terminals \( A \) and \( B \).
- Four resistors labeled as:
- \( R \) (resistor in series with the voltage source),
- \( P = 2.4 \, \Omega \) (connected in parallel to resistor \( R \)),
- \( Q = 4.8 \, \Omega \) (connected in series with \( P \)),
- \( S = 1.2 \, \Omega \) (connected in parallel with \( Q \) and \( P \)).
#### Problem Statement
If a 20-V electromotive force (emf) is connected to the terminals \( A \) and \( B \) and \( R = 1.2 \, \Omega \), what is the current in the \( 2.4 \, \Omega \) resistor?
