Question

In the circuit shown in the figure (Figure 1) , the 16.0-V battery is removed and reinserted with the opposite polarity, so that its negative terminal is now next to point a.

A) Find the magnitude of the current in the circuit.

B) Find the direction of the current in the circuit.

C) Find the terminal voltage Vba of the 16.0-V battery. (Express your answer using two significant figures.)

D) Find the potential difference Vac of point a with respect to point c.

P.S: I already used 0.47 on question A, but mastering physics marked it as incorrect :(
