Question: In the circuit shown in Fig the current in the 20.0-V battery is 5.00 A in the direction shown and the voltage across the 8.00-n

In the circuit shown in Fig the current in the 20.0-V battery is 5.00 A in the direction shown and the voltage across the 8.00-n resistor is 16.0 V, will the lower end of the resistor at higher potential. Find
(a) The emf (including its polarity) of the battery X;
(b) The current I through the 200.0-V battery (including its direction);
(c) The resistance R.


20.0 Ω 300Ω 8.000 200.0 V- 18.0 -20.0 V X 5.00 A
