Solution

To find the current flowing through the circuit, we can use Ohm's Law, which states that the current (I) is equal to the voltage (V) divided by the resistance (R).

In this case, the voltage (V) is 14V and the resistance (R) is 10 ohms.

So, we can calculate the current (I) as follows:

I = V / R I = 14V / 10 ohms I = 1.4 Amps

So, a current of 1.4 Amps will flow through the 10 ohm resistor in this circuit.
