Two identical conductors are connected. It is known that the current flowing through the section AB

Two identical conductors are connected. It is known that the current flowing through the section AB of the circuit is 1 A. What is the current flowing through the conductor R1?

Since, by condition, the resistance of both conductors is the same, the current flowing through the conductors is equal to I1 = I2.

The current in an unbranched circuit is equal to the sum of the current in the conductors R1 and R2.

I = I1 + I2 = 1 A.

I1 = I2 = I / 2 = 1/2 = 0.5 A.

Answer: The current in the conductor R1 is 0.5 A.
