Question

CURRENT THROUGH 2 OHMS( NEED NEAT HANDWRITTEN SOLUTION ONLY OTHERWISE DOWNVOTE).

### Problem Statement

**Question:** Find the current across the resistor \(2 \, \Omega\) in Amperes while the switch \(S\) is closed for a long time.

### Diagram & Analysis

The given circuit diagram consists of the following components:

- A \(3 \, \text{V}\) battery connected to a \(1 \, \Omega\) resistor, a capacitor \(C\), and a closed switch \(S\).
- A \(2 \, \Omega\) resistor in series with an inductor \(L\), and this series combination is parallel to \(C\) and the switch \(S\).
- Another part of the circuit features a \(5 \, \text{V}\) battery connected in parallel with a \(4 \, \Omega\) resistor.

The circuit is analyzed in a steady state because the switch \(S\) has been closed for a long time.

### Explanation of Diagrams

**Circuit Diagram:**
- The circuit diagram shows the connections corresponding to resistors, capacitors, inductors, and voltage sources.
- The \(3 \, \text{V}\) battery on the left is connected in series with a \(1 \, \Omega\) resistor.
- The capacitor \(C\) and the switch \(S\) are connected in parallel, creating a path where the current can flow.
- The \(2 \, \Omega\) resistor and inductor \(L\) are in series, forming another parallel path when combined with \(C\) and \(S\).
- On the right side, the \(5 \, \text{V}\) battery and \(4 \, \Omega\) resistor create another loop in the circuit.

### Multiple Choice Options

The options provided are:

A) \(\frac{21}{19} \, \text{A}\)

B) \(\frac{21}{14} \, \text{A}\)

C) \(\frac{21}{29} \, \text{A}\)

D) \(\frac{21}{34} \, \text{A}\)

E) \(\frac{21}{39} \, \text{A}\)

---

To find the correct answer:
1. **Assume steady-state conditions** due to the long-closed switch, simplifying the analysis.
2. **Apply Kirchhoff’s circuit laws and Ohm’s law** to
