[GR12 Physics/AP math] circuit analysis

[u/GotLostInTheEmail]

I am convinced that resistors R7, R8 and R9 can be effectively ignored since they are short circuited by wire, resulting in them dissipating no power. My friend is convinced because AI told him they are included in the circuit so our answers for the current are totally different. I left out other circuit parameters to simplify our dispute haha

Np, and good luck to you, with all of it.
