$\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{AB}}=\frac{\frac{4}{2}+0-\frac{6}{4}}{\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}}-\frac{2}{5}=0.4 \mathrm{\,V}$

$\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{R}_{1}}=\mathrm{E}_{1}-\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{AB}}=3.6 \mathrm{\,V}$

$\mathrm{i}_{\mathrm{R}_{1}}=\frac{\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{R}_{1}}}{\mathrm{R}_{1}}=\frac{3.6}{2}=1.8 \mathrm{\,A}$
