To solve the problem, we will use Ohm's Law, which states that the voltage (V) across a resistor is equal to the current (I) flowing through it multiplied by the resistance (R). The formula is given by: \[ V = I \times R \] ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the initial conditions**: - Initial potential difference (V1) = 60 V ...
