Multiple Choice

The figure shows a circuit. The switch S can be closed on either point A or C, but not both at the same time. Use the following quantities:
V₁ = V₂ = 12 V
R₁ = R₄ = 1.0 $\varOmega$
R₂ = R₃ = 2.0 $\varOmega$
-At what rate is energy dissipated by R₁ when the switch S is closed on A?

A) 1 W
B) 4 W
C) 9 W
D) 36 W
E) 144 W
