  1. 2.5A
  2. 10.0A
  3. 3.13A
  4. 1.43A

A
3.13A
B
10.0A
C
2.5A
D
1.43A
Solution
Verified by Toppr

From figure, ideal diode D1 is reversed biased whereas ideal diode D2 is forward biased. Thus D1 acts as an open switch while D2 as a closed switch as shown in the equivalent circuit.
Thus current flowing through R1, I=VR1+R3=102+2=2.5A
