Answer:

The circuit is in series connection,

the same current will flow through i.e

I1 = I2 = I3 = 2A.

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the total resistance in the circuit. This is shown below:

R1 = 4Ω

R2 = 3Ω

RT =..?

Total resistance in series can be obtained as follow:

RT = R1 + R2

RT = 4 + 3

RT = 7Ω

Next we shall determine the total current flowing in the circuit:

Voltage (V) = 14V

Resistance (R) = 7Ω

Current (I) =..?

V = IR

14 = I x 7

Divide both side by 7

I = 14/7

I = 2A.

Since the circuit is in series connection,

the same current will flow through i.e

I1 = I2 = I3 = 2A.
