Solution Summary

The solution is explained in detail. The relation between the current and total charge flows are found.

Solution Preview

Electric charge is conserved. This means that the total charge of an isolated region cannot change. If the region is not isolated then the total charge can only change if charges flow away from it or move into it.

In this case the current flows from the battery through the connecting ...
