The current through R1 immediately after the switch is opened which has been closed for a long time is 0.5 A ( up )
Vc = V30Ω + V10Ω
Vc = I R2
Vc = Voltage across capacitor
V30Ω = Voltage across 30Ω resistor
V10Ω = Voltage across 10Ω resistor
I = Current
R2 = Resistance across resistor 2
I = 2 A
R2 = 10 Ω
Vc = 2 * 10
Vc = 20Ω
V = I R
V30Ω = 30 I
V10Ω = 10 I
Vc = V30Ω + V10Ω
20 = 30 I + 10 I
20 = 40 I
I = 1 / 2
I = 0.5 A ( up )
Therefore, the current through R1 immediately after the switch is opened is 0.5 A ( up )
