Homework Statement


Circuit schematic with resistors R1 = 1 Ω, R2 = 5 Ω, R3 = 8 Ω and R4 = 2 Ω, a 6 A current source, and currents I1 and I2 marked, with the heading Solving a Simple DC Circuit.

The Attempt at a Solution



Here's my work :
Simulink circuit model with two resistor branches R1=1, R2=5, R3=8, R4=2 around a loop, a DC current source in the middle connected by red dashed lines to two current sensor blocks, each feeding a scope.

When I add the DC current source , it shows a red dotted line and won't connect to other elements .
Any help would be greatly appreciated !

Hopefully maybe you already solved this by now. I haven't used Simulink but have used other circuit simulation software. Are the meters in the circuit ammeters or voltmeters?

Ammeter.
