Two resistors are connected in series. One resistor has a resistance of 1000 ohms, and the other resistor value is unknown. the circuit is connected to a 50V power supply and there is a current of 25mA flowing in the circuit. if a 1500 ohms resistor is connected in parallel with the unknown resistor, how much current will flow in this circuit?
