Current flow through the circuit if the 12W bulb is opened:
If the 12W bulb is opened, it means its resistance is removed from the circuit. So, the total

Q.2:
To solve Q.2 using nodal analysis, we need the circuit diagram or a clearer description of the
circuit nodes and connections.

Relationship between three quantities in Ohm's Law:
Ohm's Law states that the current flowing through a conductor between two points is directly
proportional to the voltage across the two points, given a constant resistance. Mathematically, it

𝑉
can be represented as

𝐼
=

𝑉
V=IR, where

𝐼
V is the voltage,

𝑅
I is the current, and

R is the resistance.
